Jack Valenti is a former aide to U.S. Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, but currently his is chief executive officer of the Motion Picture Association of America (MIAA). And, of course, just like the RIAA’s Hilary Rosen, Valenti is “warning of catastrophe for the industry” due to copy-protection piracy. Ho-hum, whoopty-do! If you want to read a brief interview with Valenti, take your pick between ZDnet.com’s version or Cnet’s News.com version.
