Once again my pal Patrick Phillip at IWantMedia.com is asking you to vote for the top figure in media for 2009. Previous winners have been Arianna Huffington, writers on strike, Stephen Colbert, Anderson Cooper, Jon Stewart, Bonnie Fuller, and Martha Stewart. So who do you think was the leading personality in the media industry this past year? Who left a lasting imprint — for good or ill? You have 10 finalists from which to choose: AOL CEO Tim Armstrong, Oprah Winfrey, Jay Leno, Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs, David Letterman, Rupert Murdoch, Si Newhouse, Redbox, and the Twitter guys. (I was a runner-up along with Brian Roberts and Diane Sawyer...) The voting is open until 12 midnight ET this Sunday, December 6th. Winner announced the following morning.

Not so much the Twitter guys, but twitter itself would be my No. 1 for 2009. Redbox is listed so it seems Twitter should be as well.
If limited to those on the list, I’d vote for Oprah. She had a big impact on the election and a big exit from the networks. Glenn Beck seemed pretty loud this year.
David Letterman
Andrew Breitbart, because he is building a mold-breaking media enterprise no one seems willing acknowledge or discuss. That tells us he is on to something – just as he was when he built the Huff Post.
