  Gerald Stone was an ABC journalist of high calibre, recruited, in the early 1970s, to work for Channel 9.He adapted the 60 Minutes format from overseas and made it very successful.
  
  Stone had an irascible even awful boss in Kerry Packer, but one whose eccentricities and bastardries were redeemed by his belief that the secret of being top was of being best, that being best would inevitably, in the medium as well as the long term, produce the results it deserved, and in recognising that the real capital of a journalism and entertainment media, such as television, lay in the intellectual capital, the loyalty and the creativity of those who worked for you.
