Source: MediaDailyNews, “Cable Muscle: Lionsgate Buys TV Guide Network, Site,” by Wayne Friedman, 1/7/09.
Quote from Friedman:
Lionsgate will push the TV Guide Network, a widely distributed cable TV network in 83 million homes, into the bigger world of entertainment news. It will compete with E! Entertainment and syndicated programs such as ‘Entertainment Tonight’ and ‘Access Hollywood.’
I’m so glad that we’ll have more news on Brittney Spears, Paris Hilton, and co. I thought they were not properly covered in the news. Sarcasm, of course.
