HBO chief: Quality won't suffer under new owner AT&T

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — HBO's programming chief pushed back Wednesday against the possibility that the cable channel will suffer under new owner AT&T. Casey Bloys, speaking to a meeting of TV critics, said there are no plans to choose volume over quality for its shows. "No one is asking us to take pitches of a 'Love Boat' reboot or anything like that," he said. As support, Bloys cited comments made during an earnings call Tuesday by John Stankey, who manages the new AT&T division that includes HBO and other Time Warner media assets.
