A chastened-looking Harrah's Entertainment CEO Gary Loveman, appearing haggard and grim at Wednesday's "State of the Industry" panel. More than that, he talked like a man who'd found religion: "We in the casino industry spend money like drunken sailors ... A billion dollars is a lot of money, after all." (Yeah, but not nearly as much as $27 billion.) As for Loveman's ashen aspect, if wire services had just reported that Apollo Management was at risk of defaulting on its Harrah's bonds, you'd probably look like you'd just had a close encounter with the Grim Reaper, too.
Left completely unmentioned were former panel regular J. Terrence Lanni and his newly crowned successor at the helm of MGM Mirage, Jim Murren. But, considering that my notes show no dropping of the names of Steve Wynn and Sheldon Adelson, either, it might be unwise to read anything into the lack of even a passing reference to the outgoing Lanni. But he deserved at least that much and surely more.
