| AL GORE GETS A TV STATION |
| 2004-05-04 |
| EFL An investor group headed by former Vice President Al Gore launched a cable news network for young adults Tuesday by buying Newsworld International from Vivendi Universal Entertainment for an undisclosed sum.

Gore said the network will be "an independent voice in this industry" with a primary target audience of people between 18 and 34 "who want to learn about the world in a voice they recognize and a view they recognize as their own." "This is not going to be a liberal network, a Democratic network or a political network," Gore said at a news conference..... [no of course not, it will be all three- possibly also a geeky network] |
