What's at stake in the war over Voom?
(NewsDay) Will Voom survive? Chairman Charles Dolan ousted directors who didn't support his plan to save Voom. His hand-picked replacements may give Dolan more time -- or may look at the same facts and reach the same conclusion as the old directors.
Will James Dolan survive as CEO? The son of Charles Dolan went against his father and much of the family by trying to kill Voom. That could endanger the younger Dolan's job as chief executive of Cablevision.
Will Cablevision survive? Whatever the outcome of the Voom fight, some observers speculate that the Dolan family is so splintered by the conflict that they may decide to sell all or parts of Cablevision.
