GE, Disney Among Most-Admired Companies

(Broadcasting & Cable) – NBC parent company General Electric tops Fortune magazine’s annual list of most-admired companies, while The Walt Disney Co. ranks first among pure entertainment companies. In the annual survey, GE beat out FedEx, Southwest Airlines and Procter & Gamble. Because NBC makes up such a small portion of the industrial conglomerate, it is not considered an entertainment company. In that category, Disney tops Univision, Time Warner and CBS.
