What were YOU watching after "911"?

I was bouncing between ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN and FOX.
I could give a hoot about sex or wanting to escape to some "History or Discover or MTV" channel, let alone "GLTV".

I was info. hungry! And i bet that this time around all of these "cable news channels" will have programming set up like you wouldn't believe . They probably have been preparing a strategy this time around that will knock your socks off! They are probably set up to make tons of money off of any terrorist attack that would rival or disrupt like "911" did.

Don't you think that? Or am i the only one? Isn't it obvoius ?

If i were to launch a new network that relied on viewership and advertising i would think that timing would be paramount, not just the finalizing of carriage agreements and scheduling. The carriers and advertisers are probably thinking the same thing. I can't be the only one thinking this. Can I? I would probably at least wait until some kind of "coast is clear" feeling. I would not totaly abandon or delay my new network or the enevitability of the success, but I would at least consider it as part of my overall strategy. I'm thinking that if the delay of the launch gets to an obvious point, the pps may drop lower than we can realize, what do you think?

Thanks for listening, Val and the gang.
