Joost has hired Creative Artists Agency to help it attract big-name Hollywood programming. “(The CAA) will provide Joost greater access to programming through our relationships with networks, studios, record labels, artists and independently-controlled content libraries,” said Michael Yanover, head of business development at the agency.

The problem with Hollywood, if you have worked in the industry for more then 10 years they dont want to talk with you, even if you have worked on 3 or more hits shows.
They only want o talk with NEW people, mostly from UK or AUST.
They always pass over good material be cause they never look at it.

Hired CAA? A relationship is understandable, but hiring? CAA is still going to shop that same content to destination sites and networks that don’t pay them.
Anywho, rumor has it the Fox/NBC project is looking great and if ABC signs on, CAA probably won’t be able to do much more for Joost than Viacom already is.
