Time Warner Cable's system in Houston, Texas, is adding gay and lesbian channel Q Television Network to its list of premium network opt-ins.
TWC's digital cable subscribers in the area will be able to access QTN’s live, original GLBT programming as a 24/7 premium network, effective December 13, 2005.
Recently, QTN announced its launch throughout Time Warner Cable of New York and New Jersey, in addition to previous launches on Time Warner’s Rochester, Syracuse and Maine systems, bringing QTN’s programming into five of the US's top 10 markets.
[napte storyboard 1] "We are pleased to offer QTN’s diverse and refreshing line-up to our customers," said Greg Calvert, Time Warner Cable Houston’s director of marketing. "With so many quality live and original GLBT programmes to choose from, QTN was the natural choice in serving this growing segment of our viewing audience."
Added Carol Hinnant, QTN’s vice president, affiliate sales and marketing: “It is our continued goal to reach out and entertain GLBT communities where they have been underserved in the past. Time Warner Cable has done a fabulous job of connecting with all segments of its customer base, and we look forward to working with them to serve the Houston market."

How great would it be if Time Warner purchased QBID. Then, the TW lawyers could bail them out of this lawsuit. haha.

The scariest thing in my mind is the fact that Frank has absolutely zero scruples and moral decency that he tried to use a company that is not even registered (Franklyn Broadcasting). It simply goes to show that he is a terrible steward for the company!
Another point is that it seems that he was trying to use Gov't funds through the Indian Funds to pay Firestone for QTN work! That smells really bad!

You still have not proven the question, just a wild accusation and a guess. No proof!

Apparently you're not understanding the point of the Pinks. They are widely speculation. The company NEVER releases facts, so anything that is said could be assumed true and it is the companies responsibility to prove that what is stated is false. That's a far cry from NASDAQ or NYSE stocks, where the company says what it wants, and it is up to the investors to prove otherwise.
So basically, the argument is that Frank sold restricted stock in order to buy assets and throw parties. I think he's basically confirmed this in the CC when he said he knew the reason for the decline in PPS was the restricted stock sales.
So what does he do? He raises the authorized shares, which no one would ever do in a Pink position for a reason other than selling more restricted shares.

Ok I'm done reading the court filing... I must say I did predict lawsuits... And after reading this court filing it is clear Frank is in some pretty big trouble. Guys this really looks bad.

ROFLMAO! Once again blowing your own horn of your fictional greatness. I must say though, you do get rather testy when caught!
One thing you should do before wining about the things people point out about you is, look at what you point out and demean others about. Nasty medicine isn't it?

Nothing you stated was anything but a personal attack on me. I'm surprised Doc is letting your space-wasting posts directed at me stand. I don't mind, it's starting to show how obessed you've become with complaining about me rather than providing useful info.
I actually had to search and listen to the CC and spend time getting this stuff. To me, this is important for shareholders to know. Why do you feel obligated to berate me?

Please, find on this forum where I stated this. Why are you making stuff up about me now? I never said anything of the sort!

No, I don't, but it's good to know you're quick at betraying someone's trust.
Are you done making crap up about me so you can laugh at it?
Oh yeah, I heard from this one poster on here that you are a high school dropout that inherited money from his grandpa. Heresy is great like that, isn't it?
Can you act a little bit more mature in your arguments from now on, and drop the personal attacks, because that seems to be all you know how to do.

So, in a nutshell Firestone is accusing Frank and QTN of treating them like COMMON SHAREHOLDERS. With a few twists and turns added on. It sounds a little shaky, but it might fly.

Ok, so Firestone never got their restricted shares converted to common ones. So they couldn't be diluting. IMO

It will be very interesting to see what happens to the PPS tomorrow. Good news like carriers takes the PPS down. let's see what some legal news does maybe drive it up. Just a thought.
Long, strong and holding

If nothing else, this explains a lot of the lack of communication lately. They must be up to their ears between trying to enter new markets AND having to deal with this lawsuit.

Another thought as to why the pps doesn;t run up on any decent PR's anymore.
In looking at the agreement with Firestone, we should assume that similar agreements have been made with Rasenberger, and other consultants....shares in exchange for carrier deals, etc.
Frank gives them shares upon the signing of carriers / launch in new towns (which is good news). They get the shares, and dump them when he PR's the news.

yeah that is the most reasonable ideas i ve heard Fatheroftwo.
but why would they want to dump, Maybe they have a bad feeling.
If that is the case. If we find out that the carriers such as TW, Cox and so one are dumping they might have some insider news. Like the lack of subscribers?

The pps has been dropping (actually more like plummeting) since it was trading steadiliy in the .015 range.
Imagine being given a couple hundred grand worth of stock back then and be selling it today... it would only be worth a couple thousand, if not only a couple hundred!
As I have said before, there is suppoart at .0001, and my gut feel is that we will see that by Friday! Once word of this lawsuit spreads, people will be looking to bail.
One more thought just crossed my mind... in one of the agreements w/ firestone, there was mention of QTN recapitalizing???? what do you think that meant???
My .02 is that no financial institution would touch QTN with the share structure that is currently in place....! Take it FWIW!

This lawsuit could really provide us with some well known research. And i dont think frank is going to lie under oath!
$3.4 mill actual damages, and then 2x for other damages, as well as whatever a jury would award them on top of that for punitive....

Q sounds like they have a good legitimate defense. Come on Frank, win this. You dragged us this far. If Q can show that Firestone was as incompetent as Q claims, it should go well for Q. IMO.

dont worry about it 3.5 million is not a lot of money if they lose. this is peanuts only a couple months burn rate. thats in case that they lose. I dont think they are going to lose on this one.
I have seen some of the feeds that they have been getting and the audio and video did not line up. and as was mentioned in the counter suit, they have tonnes of material that was absolutely crap. all they have to do is show the judge some of the terrible work that was taped for them and the game is over.
this is a no brainer for Franks lawyers the way i see it.

at around between pages 145 to 155 or so it is mentioned and lower down I saw Firestone admit to receiving 500,000,000 restricted shares. Frank said it was necessary for the shares to remain restricted to gaurantee that Firestone would keep their part of the agreements.

The fact is Frank has three lawsuits in front of him.
The first one was issued a month back and is only now going to court. QBID has many days left in court. This will give us some info. We needed to know, but at what expense.
The way i look at it is, frank has been keeping a lot of info. from the shareholder. First the 3 lawsuits, second the audit that was promised in a PR. He broke contract with two people, and that will be tough to fight in court.
QBID share price isnt going to even if god had a say in it, and we all know how god feels about the gays.
We also have carriers were picking up, this could discourage carriers from picking up QTN, and if we dont get 150 areas by_____. Whats the date? We lose the 2006 Gay Games.
The best thing frank could do would be to keep the investors, and shareholders informed, but good luck with this.
I sitting on 6 million right now, wishing i put it into Sirius a year ago when i had the chance. I guess now all i can do is to ride this roller coaster of pandemonium to where ever it goes.
JMO, what u think?
