Thank you for calling the Q Television Hotline.

Frank Olsen, our CEO, will be back in the office tomorrow. In the meantime, he has provided the following update:

Scott Seger, our Vice-president of advertising and John Daveny of Daveny Communications, our public relations firm, are representing us at the National Lesbian and Gay Journalist Association Annual Convention in New York today and tomorrow. During this time, they will meet with individual press publications.

Also, Barbara Lamont of Network Teleports, our satellite company, is attempting to set up a meeting privately with Dan Rather, who is a guest speaker at the convention.

We have reserved space in four major publications. What we actually say in these ads depends on how many signed contracts have been returned to us by the time of the advertising deadlines, and also what free coverage we get from the press at the Gay Journalist Convention.

Our next target is to inform you of our carriage companies and detailed information on our programming.

We are on schedule.

Have a nice day and thank you for calling.

needtoretire,
Most of the remaining holders of this stock on this board only want to hear positive things about their beloved QBID on which they are casting their hopes and dreams.
IMHO many are in denial.
I, as well as others, have posted enough of the negative information to let anyone not in denial to make a decision.

I made my decision a week ago last Friday. I sold all and I'm glad I did.
My posts were not intended as bashing but to let those willing to listen, know there is a very good chance of loosing all invested here.

The info is now out for everyone to see. Why would anyone want to make something up that could cause a stock to drop or maybe even the SEC to freeze trading on a stock?
Answer, they wouldn't make it up. There is nothing to gain by that. Everyone I saw posting the bad news has been around this stock for a long time and had plenty of time to buy cheap shares if that is what they were trying to do.

I don't know why I'm wasting my time saying this. Just hopeing some newbie can learn to not believe the hype they see on message boards.

I really hope you all make money instead of loosing it but I don't think that will happen here.

Please, PLEASE do not get your hopes up about seeing Dan Rather mention QTV on the CBS Evening News. CBS is owned by Viacom, and he'll probably be speaking about Logo at the convention. I bet his bosses wouldn't even allow him to report on QTV.

Actually, since he's one of the guest speakers at a convention, it's standard practice to announce that you are going to try to get a few minutes to speak with him. They usually have time put aside for such things, and when they say "you have a minute" they really mean that you have about 20 seconds, so you'd better make it good.

What is important is the convention in New York and the advertising campaign. This will bring us the plublicity we need!

I don't know why they said the thing about Dan Rather, seeing how he is under Viacom but who knows...

JUNE 19, 2004

LESBIAN & GAY JOURNALISTS CONVENE IN NEW YORK

NLGJA National Convention to host
Dan Rather, Margaret Carlson, David Brock and Ted Allen

June 24-27, New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge

New York, NY (June 19, 2004) – Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender journalists will gather in New York from June 24 through June 27 for the National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association (NLGJA) 2004 National Convention. This year’s theme – “Out on the Town” – will focus on the massive news coverage in the past year of LGBT civil rights, including marriage of same-sex couples.

The convention will host some of the nation’s top names in journalism and media, including CBS News’ Dan Rather, CNN’s Margaret Carlson, author David Brock and “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” food and wine expert Ted Allen. In addition, CBS’s Harry Smith and The Poynter Institute’s ethicist Kelly McBride will examine continuing newsroom ethical challenges in plenary sessions at the convention.

The four-day gathering will draw hundreds of journalists from mainstream and LGBT media to discuss topics that include politics in a presidential election year, HIV/AIDS, the arts, emerging communities within LGBT culture, and journalistic ethics.

The 2004 NLGJA Convention will take place at the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge (333 Adams Street, Brooklyn). NLGJA’s executive director, Pamela Strother, noted that up to 650 LGBT journalists and news industry leaders are expected to attend, adding, “Our presenters, workshops and plenary sessions promise to make this one of the most compelling conventions ever.” NLGJA leaders Barbara Dozetos and David Steinberg served as this year’s convention programming co-chairs. Mykel MacCarthy and Maria Baugh are the New York Host Committee co-chairs.

David Brock, author of four political books, including the newly released The Republican Noise Machine: Right-Wing Media and How It Corrupts Democracy will take the stage Friday from 4:30-5:45pm for a special plenary, “Conversation with a Newsmaker.” Garret Glaser, correspondent, CNBC Business News will interview Brock about his new organization, Media Matters for America, and his years as a conservative media insider.

Evan Wolfson, executive director of Freedom to Marry, will review the latest developments and future activity of marriage for same-sex couples, which has dominated headlines for months. Before founding Freedom to Marry, Wolfson was co-counsel in the historic Hawaii marriage case, Baehr v. Miike.

“No other convention delivers as high-quality content examining the coverage of LGBT issues,” said NLGJA president Steven Petrow. “In a year of unprecedented coverage of LGBT issues, NLGJA is uniquely qualified to distill and bring expert focus on LGBT politicians, the national political landscape, marriage, gay youth, health care and HIV/AIDS, as well as the extremely important issues facing transgender people in our society.” Petrow is Senior Vice-President, Editorial Director and Group Publisher for Waterfront Media.

The opening breakfast plenary promises a splash of news attention for the 2004 election cycle with “Asking and Telling: How the LGBT Debate Is Changing Politics,” featuring Rather, Carlson and David A. Sirulnick, Executive Vice President, News & Production, MTV.

NLGJA hosts its first-ever LGBT Media Summit with tracks of panels on Thursday, June 24, on topics relevant to journalists who work in the LGBT press. Featured speakers include Leslie Feinberg, Evan Wolfson and Michelangelo Signorile.

The National Convention is hosted by the New York Chapter of NLGJA, with speakers and participants from most major U.S. newspapers and television and radio outlets as well as LGBT-owned media and new media services.

A partial list of this year’s speakers and participants include:

Dan Rather, Anchor and Managing Editor, CBS Evening News & Correspondent, 60 Minutes II
David Brock, author
Margaret Carlson, columnist, Time magazine
Harry Smith, Anchor, CBS’s The Early Show
Ted Allen, Food and Wine Expert, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy
Pete Williams, Justice Correspondent, NBC News
Roy Simmons, former offensive lineman for the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins
Hon. Barney Frank (D), U.S. Congressman, Massachusetts

THIS IS QTN--Q TELEVISION--(QBID) NOT TO BE CONFUSED OR CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS WITH QTV. WE DON'T NEED ANY INFRINGMENT PROBLEM.

GLINN HAD A PROBLEM WITH Q TELEVISION AT ONE TIME. I BELIEVE THAT IS IN THE PAST. I WILL STILL SEND THEM INFORMATION. WHAT I DO SEND HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE OFFICE OF Q TELEVISION NETWORK.

SAMPLE LETTER

DEAR GAY/LESBIAN ADVOCATE,

A new network about the Gay and Lesbian experiences will be available for carriage July 2004, in your territories. I find this to be exciting information.

A compressed broadcast day is available for viewing through the end of June on Satellite 1A-7, Transponder C1 at downlink frequency 3731.425 MHz Horizontal. 129 Degrees West. Channel 1.

In addition to motion pictures, documentaries and series, Q Television Network, will go into the communities and report the news that is vital to it's members. With the new bureaus available to Q Television worldwide, QTN plans to be the 1st Gay/Lesbian network of choice.

You may contact the offices of Q Television Network at 760-323-4455 and speak
with Steven Grunberg or Frank Olsen for further information.

Here is one of the latest news releases RE: Q Television Network

Q Television Network Has Arrived: New Gay Family Television Network Showcases its Unique Perspective Prior to Public Launch
5/26/2004 6:00:00 AM

NEW ORLEANS, May 26, 2004, (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID), headquartered in California, announces the launch of a subscriber channel for the gay and lesbian community in July 2004. An industry soft launch for carriers and advertisers begins June 1, 2004.

"It has taken more than seven years and millions of dollars to arrive at this day," says president and chairman Frank Olsen. "Clearly, the time to launch this network is now, and I am confident that the gay and lesbian community will embrace the unique perspective we offer as a family channel."

In a pre-public move to preview a sample of its programming to cable and satellite industry professionals, as well as potential advertisers, Q Television Network will offer a compressed daily broadcast that includes featured programs. The sample highlights Q Television's availability for carriage and sponsorship.

As executive vice president Steven Grunberg notes, "This is built by and for the gay community. Rather than a smattering of stereotyped gay characters offered because current market projections indicate it would be profitable, we offer a channel that will unite the gay and lesbian audience through a network that educates, entertains and informs - a network of real value."

Beginning June 1, the network will be available for viewing on Intelsat America's 1A-7, Transponder C1 at downlink frequency 3731.425 MHz Horizontal. 129 degrees West. Channel 1.

Olsen, an entrepreneur with a significant background in broadcasting, was instrumental in the launch of The Movie Channel prior to its acquisition by Showtime. A pioneer in the development of new radio broadcast formats throughout his 40-year career, Olsen helped create African American radio and started the first gay radio stations.

"Just as CNN had tremendous hurdles to overcome, Frank and Q Television Network have had an uphill battle in the launch of Q Television," observes CFO Rene Schenk. "Q Television is positioned to successfully meet the demand that exists for a gay family channel."

Original and Acquired Programming

With a system of production crews throughout the United States, Q Television Network will offer a combination of original and acquired programming, which includes sports, fashion, travel, health & fitness, talk shows, plays, documentaries and movies. Teams of producers and directors will also bring breaking stories of interest to the network's audience via access to bureaus in Washington, DC, New York, London, Paris, Moscow, Jerusalem and Iraq.

A preview of original programming premiered in May at the National Cable & Telecommunication Association's annual industry conference and was also included in a successful five-hour sample broadcast on May 15, which aired on Cox Cable in Louisiana and Comcast in the Puget Sound Region.

Included in that preview was "I Will, I Do, We Did," an original Q Television documentary exploring gay and lesbian marriage in America that offers an inside glimpse of the challenges faced by this community. Independent films, such as "An Intimate Friendship" and the award-winning "Straightman," are other examples of what will be available on the network, as well as commercial fare such as Bette Midler's "Divine Madness" concert.

About Q Television Network

This television network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be composed 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. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.

For more information regarding carriage and advertising opportunities, contact the network at 760-323-4455 to talk with Frank Olsen or Steven Grunberg. http://www.qtelevision.com/

This year’s theme – “Out on the Town” – will focus on the massive news coverage in the past year of LGBT civil rights, including marriage of same-sex couples.

The convention will host some of the nation’s top names in journalism and media, including CBS News’ Dan Rather, CNN’s Margaret Carlson, author David Brock and “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” food and wine expert Ted Allen. In addition, CBS’s Harry Smith and The Poynter Institute’s ethicist Kelly McBride will examine continuing newsroom ethical challenges in plenary sessions at the convention.

The four-day gathering will draw hundreds of journalists from mainstream and LGBT media to discuss topics that include politics in a presidential election year, HIV/AIDS, the arts, emerging communities within LGBT culture, and journalistic ethics.

The 2004 NLGJA Convention will take place at the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge (333 Adams Street, Brooklyn). NLGJA’s executive director, Pamela Strother, noted that up to 650 LGBT journalists and news industry leaders are expected to attend, adding, “Our presenters, workshops and plenary sessions promise to make this one of the most compelling conventions ever.” NLGJA leaders Barbara Dozetos and David Steinberg served as this year’s convention programming co-chairs. Mykel MacCarthy and Maria Baugh are the New York Host Committee co-chairs.

David Brock, author of four political books, including the newly released The Republican Noise Machine: Right-Wing Media and How It Corrupts Democracy will take the stage Friday from 4:30-5:45pm for a special plenary, “Conversation with a Newsmaker.” Garret Glaser, correspondent, CNBC Business News will interview Brock about his new organization, Media Matters for America, and his years as a conservative media insider.

Evan Wolfson, executive director of Freedom to Marry, will review the latest developments and future activity of marriage for same-sex couples, which has dominated headlines for months. Before founding Freedom to Marry, Wolfson was co-counsel in the historic Hawaii marriage case, Baehr v. Miike.

“No other convention delivers as high-quality content examining the coverage of LGBT issues,” said NLGJA president Steven Petrow. “In a year of unprecedented coverage of LGBT issues, NLGJA is uniquely qualified to distill and bring expert focus on LGBT politicians, the national political landscape, marriage, gay youth, health care and HIV/AIDS, as well as the extremely important issues facing transgender people in our society.” Petrow is Senior Vice-President, Editorial Director and Group Publisher for Waterfront Media.

The opening breakfast plenary promises a splash of news attention for the 2004 election cycle with “Asking and Telling: How the LGBT Debate Is Changing Politics,” featuring Rather, Carlson and David A. Sirulnick, Executive Vice President, News & Production, MTV.

NLGJA hosts its first-ever LGBT Media Summit with tracks of panels on Thursday, June 24, on topics relevant to journalists who work in the LGBT press. Featured speakers include Leslie Feinberg, Evan Wolfson and Michelangelo Signorile.

The National Convention is hosted by the New York Chapter of NLGJA, with speakers and participants from most major U.S. newspapers and television and radio outlets as well as LGBT-owned media and new media services.

Truth is who cares in Dan Rathers says anything....650 journilists...Most gay...now in the gay community (target audience) who do you think they turn to for news? I'll take the E channel or Entertainment tonight running their mouths over Dan Rather. 1 post show o/s of Sirus Radio ... I've held Sirus stock for over a yr... I sold it & put my money in QBID because Sirus is at $3 with 400,000 ( last pr) subcribers at $12 a month...if we launch in July or even August...how many subscribers do ya think will be there by x-mas? 400,000? 600,000? easily possible now Sirus has a much larger possible audiance but with that many paying $10 a month thats a VERY big monthly income and if we get the right cariers 1 million subscribers by x-mas may not be out of the ?...can you say $3 a share

This was what I was trying to say. SIRI is only a radio network! They have 1.5 billion OS, haven't reported a profit, trading at $3 a share & they're not even the front runner. XMSR is trading over $20 & they too have never reported a profit.

Even if we were to trade on par with a radio network (SIRI) & have all of our 15 billion authorised shares outstanding that would put us at .30 a share.

But then I remind myself,,,

"Self, Broadcasting National TV Networks do not trade for less than $1 a share!"

And while I'm at it,,,

"Hey self! Don't forget,,,"

"All we have to do is launch!"
