Triangle Televison Network 24/7 Gay & Lesbian Channel to start May 1st
The Triangle Television Network (the 'Company' or 'TTN'), a wholly owned subsidiary of Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc (QBID) was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing both television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While TTN expects much of its subscriber base will be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. TTN's programming will be provided on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The Triangle Television Network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the Triangle Television Network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.

With more and more specialized networks (MTV, BET, Telemundo, and now TTN's gay/lesbian channel I think it will only be a matter of time before policitally specialized channels appear.

4. If you're an advertiser, this network will be perfect.
I'm sure that there are advertisers who want to target to the gay community. And a gay channel would a way to do it.

I'm not thinking of this channel solely for advertisers. A gay and lesbian cable channel is long overdue, IMO.

But this channel will be good for a lot of people, I think.

oriented magazine....like "OUT"...the advertisers are the same you'd see in Time and Newsweek...Amex, Toyota, Merril lynch, etc
