dk...comparing the US gay environment to Canada and Europe is like comparing opposite environments...there is much more (and has been for many years) acceptance in the overseas/Canadian mkt vs the US market. US is a conservative country by nature in all aspects...so your argument on this line doesn't convince me.

Yahoo didn't have acceptance when it was first started and yet look at it today.

Barbara Lamont (originally from NY tv industry) went to Louisiana to start her own tv station and was given the same level of pessimism that TTN was given...and she did succeed so I wouldn't in the least minimize the strength of her input to TTN for the direction needed to accomplish their goal of televising their content.

In summary, TTN may finally be in the right environment (smaller space/outsourced facilities/content distribution) rather than trying to reproduce all this themselves. With all due respect to your experience in tv, I have none but I do understand the ballgame of outsource and distribution very well and my eyes simply tell me on when I watch Wendy Murphy on tv she's not sitting in the studio of the commentator she's speaking with...she's here in Boston using other facilities, same with Nancy Grace when she's a guest on Larry King.

I am giving an A to this PR today. It describes the turnaround needed for TTN to move forward economically and with a follow through PR describing factually what they are accomplishing we will be in the forward move rather than neutral position IMO.

Time will tell.
