"NEW YORK, March 16, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Sumner M. Redstone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Viacom Inc., (NYSE: VIA and VIAB) announced today that he has been exploring with the Company's Board of Directors the possible division of its businesses into separate publicly-traded companies. "
"has been exploring"
"possible division"
I didn't read the rest of it. I haven't caught up on posts either to see if any one else has mentioned it and don't have time.
But I do know one thing for SURE.......if FRANK put out a pr with those words...you guys would be all over it with the negative crap. How come Redstone gets the benefit of the doubt? I mean gosh, how many times now has logo been delayed?
Night night all!

I'm honestly not trying to be rude to you with this quick answer, but I only have a few minutes and then it's back to the kids!
You're trying to make it look as though QTN needs a petition, or form, or whatever...and that Viacom is just doing it for shits and giggles. Stop trying to spin things to make QTN look bad.
And btw, I watched as VIA stock dropped 23% the day they anounced their GLBT network last year, so don't think for one second it's going to be any easier for them to get carraige than it is for QTN.
Again, not trying to be rude but I don't have the time to play ring around the point of the posts today!!
Have a great day!
DJ
But Junk
"if you think VIACOM really needs a website form to justify carriage for a 30 million dollar impending station launch, then i really can't reason with you anyway..."
Viacom thinks they need it or it wouldn't be there.
Very true Junk, and so can QTN :)
Wow, maybe that explains some of the strange trades we've seen the last few days?
Gotta go...have fun everyone!

I agree, it's amazing that so few have heard of us! Most of my friends aren't investors at all and I got a few of them to open accounts JUST for QBID. And they are doing the best thing they can do right now, which is not watching the PPS LOL! They opened their accounts, bought it, and went back to their day to day lives. Every now and then I get a call from one wanting to know what's going on so I direct them to the website. NONE of them have complained about anything.
As I said yesterday, from a traders point of view the Q is moving ever so slow. From a regular person, meaning not someone involved in investing but watching a business grow and waiting for our own network, QTN is awesome!
As far as logo, every person who has asked me about it, and checked out what's going on with it has said it looks like it will be the straight persons gay network. And I have to agree. Logo, if it ever launches, will be nothing to worry about for QTN.
You can't have mechanics doing cooking shows and expect them to have much insight into the cooking world, any more than you can have straight folks running a gay network and expect them to understand the gay persons view on things. No offense meant to anyone, but that's just how I see it!
Have a great day!

I know :)
I also don't think what Lobo is planning on doing goes against what Frank asked. If he were sending this email to Dish/Comcast/Direct TV then yes, I'd say it was a bad idea. But posting/sending it to GLBT message boards or chat rooms is a good idea don't you think?
DJ
Jeff
It's mostly about djdan saying he was an employee of IBCS. Go read his posts on the IBCS board where he talks about it. He got 13 million shares of ICAN from IBCS and started saying he worked for them. That boy is trouble.
Skunks
I didn't say I agreed with people calling the companies that QTN is doing business with. Frank DID ask us not to try and get info about QTN from them.
But I do agree with trying to spread the word to the community. I do it every time I go downtown to the bar I worked at. But going to a gay bar or establishment might not be something other people want to do so they email or post on message boards. Nothing wrong with that. And from Lobo's poat it sounds like that's what he's doing...
"I am going to take a night and go to every GLBT site known to man, I will be posting this or email this to every site."
I think that's a great idea. It doesn't have anything to do with the companies we're working with and it gets the word out for free.
Have fun!
DJ
Thanks Junk :)
Skunks
I think it's more getting the word out to investors that people here think they need to do, not so much marketing the network.
As I said in an earlier post, investors, or traders, think/eat/sleep/breath trading tactics. That's why the program PR's are a disappointment to some people.
QTN is going about the things they need to do to get a network on the air, and they're doing a damn good job IMO. Folks here (not all folks here but some) are looking at this as nothing more than a stock play.
Just my thoughts :)

It was a joke, I can't whisper either LOL! I don't blame you one bit for not sharing. If it's good news no one believes you, if it's bad, not only do they not believe you but you get called names. Ya just can't win!!
I'm still around! Glad to see you too ;)

"Hi, Comcast Seattle? I'd like to subscribe to Q Television since I just attened a huge promotional bash and love their programming. Oh, you don't carry that station? Thanks." Clik."
And how many of those phones calls will it take before they DO carry it? Ever think it's a way for Frank and Co. to show them how much interest is, or isn't there? Smart move if you ask me!!
DJ
I'm sitting here completely surrounded by NO BEER!

I think it's because we don't have a big carrier yet. Investors have their noses stuck in investing stuff, which is why a lot of people don't understand the program PR's and how big they are/could be. When a big name/well known company is associated with a little name company the investing public will get it. Soon QTN is going to be one of those big names.
Good luck!
DJ
CJS, I think you're wrong. eom
Erik, me too...some people just don't get that the Dinah Shore thing is HUGE! Showtimes L Word did an entire episode about it. TONS of exposure!!
GO FRANK!

I think 250 million? eom
Gosh Junk, since it seems it's your day to watch her, you should have known where she was/is? What I don't understand is, if you have such a hard time dealing with Skunks and her posts, why do you keep such close tabs on her?
Have fun people, I'm having a nap!
DJ
Where's the delete police when you need them?

"someone like me and many others with normal lives"
So a normal life is to come on a message board of a stock you don't own and insult people you don't know?
Wow. Glad I'm not that kind of normal.
Have a nice day!
DJ
You know what Skunks
Watching the website grow, watching what Frank's doing as far as the connections he's making, the coverage we're getting everywhere...I don't think people can honestly appreciate how big this is, and is going to be.
No matter what people say here on this board, I know for a FACT (from personal experience) that though some say they have no problem with the GLBT community, some people are honestly, deep in their hearts, afraid of what's happening.
People are afraid of things they don't understand (and that goes for anything...not just GLBT stuff) and QTN is about to expose a lot of people to the TRUTH about the community. Once that happens, once the regular GLBT folks have a voice, and not just the extremes that the media has been showing for decades, then those that are leery of us will have to find another way to try to condemn us, or they'll have to admit they were wrong. Not an easy thing either way.
Thanks to all of you on this board who understand that QTN isn't JUST about making money. That it's a way for a group of people who have been treated unfairly for far too long to have a REAL voice of our own.
Have a nice weekend everyone!
DJ
Junk.....................
"They obviously wouldn't launch if they didn't have commitments..."
#1, they HAVEN'T launched as of yet.
#2, why is it you can't have this positive attitude about QTN, which is ON THE AIR as we speak?
And please don't say because of the missed deadlines. I recall we were already supposed to be watching logo now were we not?
Take your time in answering, I probably won't be back until Monday.
Have a nice weekend everyone!

Irish, I'm not going to go through the numbers crap again. I made my point, and it had nothing to do with that. My post was about you. Call it a personal attack, report it to Matt and have it deleted I don't care. I'm also not going to go back through months and months or your posts to prove my point further...I know what I know and IMO, one reason a lot of people don't want you here is because you lie and twist things to suit your position in the stock.
As another poster says, EOC for me :)
DJ
Here's why no one wants Irish here, he lies...........
Irish, you've been yapping about the OS/AS question and numbers for months (if not longer) so why tell people you only found out the numbers today?

Irishbull, Any more info on that 15 Billion vs 25 billion issue you mentioned at ihub? That did seem very odd. And it seems like they clearly indicated the history of the number of shars from those washington filings so they should have the current number very easily. I wonder why they won't release the current O/S.

I haven't caught up with the posts from the last few hours. I have NO questions what so ever about that info...I know exactly who owns what. I was trying to get one of them to 'clarify' it for me...if ya know what I mean ;)
We've been dealing with that RB poster for almost a year. The same BS day in and day out!! It's supposedly a woman named Jackie Deaner, but I have no idea who she is or what went on as it was all before my time with Q. I never brought any of those posts over because I know it's crap, but someone else did so I was trying to get some real info. I'd love to shut THAT particular person up on RB once and for all LOL!
Now I'll try to catch up and see what's what around here!! From scanning a few posts it looks like we're ready to rock and roll!!
Go FRANK!!!!!
DJ
well you wouldn't with your head...nevermind. go ahead, delete it...but I know you're chuckling as you do ;)
WRONG Irish. I know SEVERAL people tos YOU all the time and you don't leave so it's not that.
And that wasn't meant as a personal attack, but proving the point that the amount of tos'es (Lord the way we have to try to express things LOL) wouldn't do it!!
DJ
Ok Hop, so what is the first one that the other poster has? The one incorporated in 1951? The second one matches the one you posted from what I see (unless I'm reading something wrong LOL).
DJ
I'm not so sure Irish...look.....
I have never seen the paper documents from where ever they come from, but if I recall someone here does have them. Maybe that person can compare, or maybe someone who is better at digging can figure it out.
***edit...and plus, there's TWO differnt spellings of Olsen. One with an 'O' and one with an 'E'.
