Mr. Desmond Smith, NewsCo

“We are a Canadian documentary group specializing in media and human rights issues. We have worked with Steve for the past decade. In a lifetime working at CBS News and ABC News and now being an ‘independent’ I can say how much I have found Steve’s sage advice so helpful. He has pulled some astonishing deals out of the hat for our docs. The guy never sleeps, always returns calls, and has a great staff. He is enthusiastic and gets to every corner where a TV sale might be made – a Korean airline or an outlet in Bombay. He talks with A&E and the nets. I have made money with Janson Media doing some of the toughest, grittiest stories. Steve is far more than a distributor (though brilliant at that). He is a friend, counselor and comes up with savvy business advice constantly. And his sales team never forgets your docs. I am still getting royalties for work we did half a dozen years ago. He’s number one, and call me any time about Steve.”
