Q Television Network Signal Terminated
Thursday May 25, 9:16 am ET
BURBANK, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--May 25, 2006 -- Triangle Multi-Media Limited (Other OTC:QBID.PK - News) and its wholly owned subsidiary the Q Television Network (QTN) announced today that Q Television Network is no more. Effective 5:30pm Central time, the Q Television Network signal broadcasting programming was shut down. Previously, the entire Q Television Network staff had been terminated.
Chairman and CEO Lloyd Fan stated that he was unable to secure funding for the network and therefore unable to meet the financial obligations of the company. "When I took over control of the network on March 7, 2006, the company was roughly 7 million dollars behind in payments to vendors; numerous lawsuits had been filed against the company and over $600,000 was owed to former employees. The financial challenges that the network faced proved too difficult and I was simply unable to turn around the network." Mr. Fan added, "Given the GLBT demographic and the success the network had experienced in distribution, I thought securing funding would be easy -- I was wrong. I am deeply disappointed that the network failed. Many talented people devoted themselves to saving the network and it is sad that it has come to this end.
"I would like to thank the cable affiliates, our uplink provider, all the vendors and the staff that supported my takeover. I had hoped to make good on all the debts incurred and owed by the former management team and truly thought that the new team, with proper funding, could make Q Television Network a success. My sincere apologies to all individuals and businesses that have suffered because of their affiliation with Q Television Network." A full forensic accounting and bankruptcy proceedings will follow.
