From: E. Taylor | 2/3/2006 4:24:21 PM | | | | Mr. Brown kept his word, I received my Triangle Multimedia ”Investor Reel 2006” today. I was hoping for more substance like a detailed financial report, but what I received was a commercial.
Having said that I’m still impressed with what they are doing. They are spending a lot of money, and I think suspending operations to rethink what can and can not be done at this point in time is a good idea. While the sky is falling I’m still accumulating. No matter what happens for here out IMHO the stock is worth a lot more that .0001. |

From: E. Taylor | 2/7/2006 11:44:28 AM | | | | Bravo readies gay-themed broadband network Tue Feb 7, 2006 5:34 AM ET
By Carly Mayberry
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Bravo is launching its first broadband channel targeted specifically to a gay and lesbian audience, the network said Monday.
Dubbed OutzoneTV.com, the channel, set to launch next month, will feature video-on-demand content based around the network's series "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," "Boy Meets Boy" and "Gay Weddings," and will also establish blogs and other community activities where viewers can voice opinions and post comments about Bravo programming.
The move follows the launch of TrioTV.com and the future launch of BrilliantButCancelled.com, part of the NBC Universal-owned network's aggressive rollout of broadband channels announced last month.
"Clearly, there's an appetite from Bravo television viewers for increased flow of content that a linear TV channel can't provide," Bravo president Lauren Zalaznick said. "This on-demand push makes great Bravo content that there isn't room for on TV available 24/7."
Zalaznick, who said the broadband channel's content will be "smart and funny and relatable to everyone," also said the network is partnering with media entertainment PlanetOut Inc. to draw from their advertising and editorial expertise with the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender demographic. The collaboration marks the first time Bravo has partnered with an outside agency in the creation of a broadband site.
"We're gaining cross-promotion from the entertainment outlet for this community," Zalaznick said about Bravo's collaboration with PlanetOut, which owns Gay.com, PlanetOut.com, Kleptomaniac.com and Out&About Travel.
OutzoneTV.com, TrioTV.com and BrilliantButCancelled.com all are inspired by programming created by the now-defunct Trio network. All three channels exist under the umbrella of the network's original site, BravoTV.com. |

I spoke with Richard Brown today. He's still with Q; has been talking quite a bit this past week, particularly with shareholders and management.
He said he has a lot at stake (been paid in shares; didn't know that. Hasn't sold any, he says) and is still pushing hard for changes and transparency. Says that as far as he knows the Feb 13 deadline is still good. Could not confirm that Q has permanent replacement financing in place.
I told him that a good private equity group would be happy to fund Q in exchange for 50% of Olsen's shares, voting control, and putting in their own President and CFO. Richard could not confirm that they were in such discussions, but did confirm that such ideas have been broached to Olsen & Co by 'finance groups'. Frank & Co are just having trouble agreeing to such conditions. No doubt, it's a control and shares issue for Frank & Co: they don't want to let go control, nor give up shares. Foolish and destructive. 50% of nothing is nothing. And this venture is nothing with Olsen in control.
Richard expressed concerns about the current group of financiers; implied that they weren't real financial types. Perhaps too lax. One of them apparently has 'dropped out,' no explanation from Rich. Is any needed?
Frank & Co have put in about $12 million of their own money; are having a hard time letting go. Again, they can't grasp the concept that 50% of nothing is nothing but 20% of something is something.
Richard said Carol Hinnant saw the audit. She is a pistol. I am sure she's got Olsen's number because she's the one who delivered the carriage and the only one who has any credibility in the industry. I suspect she's starting to throw some weight around. She called up Richard and asked him to explain some numbers. That's disconcerting, actually, b/c Richard is NOT a finance guy.
BTQ, Richard still believes the reason the audit hasn't been released is because Olsen disagrees with the asset valuations. I think that's only the tip of the iceburg. He gives Olsen too much credit. |

From: SKARLOEY | 3/10/2006 1:09:23 AM | | | | frank created a good thing but his personal problems over came him,,he leaves in disgrace and potential lawsuits,,not to mention,, he has ended his career and reputation at the lowest level...he will never be able to show his face...
i like many believed in the concept of qtn,,and even over looked frank's peculiar ways in the belief that one should not judge others,,but the last few months said it all...
imo qtn will be bought up soon and it will be cannibalized by the other gay tv folks...
qbid should be thought of as a lesson about pink sheet stocks,,scalp,,do not hold...no matter what...most are criminal run and even ones like qbid,, which had so much going for itself,, will disappear into dust,,a foot note to the exchange no more... |

From: E. Taylor | 3/13/2006 6:35:40 PM | | | | Monday, March 13, 2006 Q TELEVISION NETWORK CEO LLOYD FAN APPOINTS CAROL HINNANT TO PRESIDENT AND CONSOLIDATES QTN HEADQUARTERS
Q TELEVISION NETWORK, INC. CEO LLOYD FAN APPOINTS CAROL HINNANT TO PRESIDENT AND CONSOLIDATES QTN HEADQUARTERS
Moves Mark First Steps in Restructuring and Growth of Groundbreaking GLBT Network
Burbank, CA – March 13, 2006 – Standing firm by his pledge to strengthen and maximize the network’s business model, Lloyd Fan has announced his first executive appointment since becoming Chairman and CEO of Triangle Multimedia Limited, Inc and its subsidiary, Q Television Network (QTN) (See OTCBB Other: QBID). He has upped Carol Hinnant—formerly QTN Vice President, Sales & Marketing—to the post of President, a move that will help position the network for long-term viability while nurturing and building on its business and community relationships.
Fan has also announced the closing of Triangle Multimedia Limited Inc.’s former Palm Springs headquarters, which had been maintained as a home base of operations for the network’s previous executive staff. Triangle’s operations have been consolidated, with all business now generated from QTN’s Burbank studio location.
These moves—which come just six days after Triangle announced the resignation of its board of directors—mark Fan’s first steps in his plans to restructure and revitalize Triangle’s subsidiary, QTN, the groundbreaking GLBT network. Since taking over as CEO, he has listened to both members of the GLBT community and the shareholder base, working diligently to analyze both the current organization and begin making necessary changes.
“This is a vital, promising network that has unfortunately experienced some growing pains. In her new role, Carol will be a tremendous benefit to QTN, as she has the background and relationships to help lead us in the right direction,“ said Fan. “However, the restructuring of QTN is a major undertaking, and we have a long way to go. I want to express my gratitude to all employees, vendors and community members for their support while we work through this transitional period.”
Added Hinnant: “I accepted this role knowing we had a lot of work ahead of us. QTN not only has a very loyal audience of viewers but also has many respected partners and affiliates deserving of answers to their questions. It is our goal to deliver transparency to this company and fulfill some of the promises made by former management.”
As QTN’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Hinnant played an integral role in building the network’s presence in the cable television marketplace. Hinnant is a 15-year veteran of the cable programming industry, having held senior management positions with HBO, Inc. and Jones Media Network, Inc. (JMN) and Here!, Hinnant began her career as a paralegal at the Houston, Texas based law firm, Hutchison & Grundy and quickly excelled into the management ranks of a public company when joining General Homes Corporation, Inc. as Director of the Legal Department.

3/13/2006 - CEO UPDATE
Letter from the CEO of TMM/QTN
March 13, 2006
To Our Shareholders:
I am pleased to announce that many important changes are beginning to take shape both within our holding company of Triangle Multimedia and our wholly owned subsidiary, QTelevision Network. I will be assigning seats for our board of directors and personally will be interviewing qualified individuals for our executive team. We will be diligent in our search and will not set a specific time frame as to the completion of these important matters because our mission is to seat qualified people within the media, financial and operational fields very carefully. We feel our company is positioned to prosper in the GLBT marketplace and making these changes is the first step.
Our ultimate goal is to become a publicly traded company that holds both the respect of our shareholder base and the financial marketplace in whole. We fully understand the need to supply our current and future investors with the proper resources to make intelligent investment decisions concerning our security. We are working hard to become transparent, thus enabling the investment community to track our growth. These tasks are not without their difficulties, and we intend to keep our shareholder base involved and up to date with any specific changes that will directly affect our security. We feel strongly in our attempt to successfully compete within our market sector and in turn add much needed value to our stock.
Our existing team of employees has endured quite a bit and I must applaud the resilience our staff has shown. They believe, as I do, that this company has a bright future and with hard work, honesty and the loyal support of our investor base, we can continue to be a company we are proud of.
I will be supplying our investor relations team with information shortly and any questions that can publicly be answered will be done through Richard Brown.
We appreciate your continued patience and confidence.
Sincerely,
Lloyd Fan |
