Stuart Snyder

President of Cartoon Network from 2007 onward, CEO of Turner from the time of writing. Once worked for Cinar (now called Cookie Jar) animation company, situated in Monteal, Canada, known for a very successful run at children's animation. He has tried to promote anti-bullying campaigns to the point where Dr. Phil McGraw and Anderson Cooper have taken interest in his projects. Snyder's background eventually led Cartoon Network to strike a deal with him after former president, Tim Samples, left due to the infamous Boston Bomb Scare (currently head of HGTV). Snyder seemed right for the position, but others firmly disagree... CONTROVERSY: Snyder's name often acts as a punching bag for older viewers of the network. Snyder's programming once caused disastrous collapse of viewers at Cartoon Network. It is believed he often short-changes any and all ideas brought forth to the channel, has a savage obsession with ratings, and a penchant for live-action exploits. This could stem from the fact he has tried to create a Disney/Nickelodeon level ratings premise. While there is no true confirmation on Snyder's actions in the executive chair, when it comes television shows, he treats them like racehorses. Should they become unable to win the race anymore, he pulls out his shotgun.
