said by moonpuppy :said by TKJunkMail :Howard who?? Probably referring to Howard Hughes who started the company. Thanks. I never knew that a Hughes company started DirecTV(used to be called Hughes Electronics which came from Hughes Aircraft). They've been around longer than I thought since he has been dead so long(1976).
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hughes_Electronics
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DirecTV_Group
Actually DirecTV came more from a merger of Delco Electronics(GM company) and Hughes Aircraft subsidiary Hughes Space and Communications division. Delco merged with Hughes Aircraft when GM owned it. It was while GM owned it that DirecTV was created in 1994.
So I guess GM had more to do with DirecTV than Howard Hughes ever did.

Glen Burnie, MD | The same can be said about Northrop Grumman. Two separate aircraft companies (plus a third, Vought) got together and then acquired Westinghouse's electronic division along with a few others.
Jack Northrop would be proud. |
