LOS ANGELES (AP) - When ABC Entertainment President Stephen McPherson recalls his first job out of college, as a broker on Wall Street, it's not happily.
"The idea you would go a whole year and at the end they would say, 'You made X and lost Y, and that's what you did and thank you very much,' it's mind-boggling to me that I did that for five years and people do that for a career."
For McPherson, the bottom line now is shaped by "Desperate Housewives," "Lost" and other hit series that have revived ABC's fortunes and made him television's latest golden boy in the executive ranks.
