The Weinstein Company, a powerhouse film production and distribution company, has set its sights on television and theater.

Despite all he’s done to build up the New York’s Tribeca neighborhood, Robert DeNiro is having a run-in with the city Landmarks Commission.

Though it’s still in pre-production, the movie Nine is already generating buzz. The cast has yet to be confirmed, but rumored co-stars are all familiar with the Academy Awards.

The radio business has been very good to Lowry Mays and Billie Joe “Red” McCombs.

In 1972, they formed the San Antonio Broadcasting Company to buy an FM station for $125,000.

Thirty-five years later, that company is called Clear Channel Communications and it owns more than 1,000 stations. Its shareholders recently approved a $19.5 billion private equity buyout that values Mays’ stock at more than $1.1 billion and McCombs’ shares at about $190 million. The deal is expected to close before the end of the year.

In early 2000, when Clear Channel shares hit $95, the founders’ stock would have been valued at more than twice as much as now.
