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... |

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 |

QTV: "We're restructuring"
Q Television chairman Lloyd Fan says the gay cable channel is in the middle of restructuring and expects to resume production soon. On Wednesday, QTN shut down its Burbank, Calif., studios and sent out an e-mail terminating all its employees after it was unable to meet its payroll. But Friday afternoon, Fan told Sirius OutQ Radio that the termination message was just a "standard type of form" that gets sent out in such situations. Fan said he couldn't comment in detail because of "delicate" negotiations that are under way but that the company is "still moving forward with a restructuring" and that he expects the network to resume operations. QTN is still continuing to transmit prerecorded programming to cable systems around the country through hired master control facilities in Texas. Fan took over the company two months ago after QTN founder Frank Olsen departed in a management shakeup. (Sirius OutQ Radio) |

Q Television goes dark after failing to secure new funding
The gay cable channel Q Television has finally gone dark, after the network turned off the repeats it had been running from a hired master control in Texas on Thursday.
The gay cable channel Q Television has finally gone dark, after the network turned off the repeats it had been running from a hired master control in Texas on Thursday. The channel laid off its staff and halted all live programming two weeks ago.
QTN chairman Lloyd Fan blamed the shutdown on the company's inability to secure new funding. An East Asian entrepreneur, Fan took over the company in March, after founder Frank Olsen was pushed out in a management shakeup.
In the statement issued Thursday, Fan said that at the time he took over, the company owed $600,000 to former employees and some $7 million to its vendors. But in Fan's words, "Given the GLBT demographic and the success the network had experienced in distribution, I thought securing funding would be easy—I was wrong."
Fan apologized to those who "have suffered because of their affiliation with Q Television Network." He promised full forensic accounting and bankruptcy proceedings but offered no details.
At its peak, QTN reached about 3 million U.S. homes. (Sirius OutQ News)
