This is my parent company, I was happy to read this email yesterday when the news dropped. They could not have found a better and more stable owner. I do not know what this means for the shows the channel produced, but we can hope they bring the good ones back! I have brought up dabbling in that arena to my agent, she says to keep doing the weather lol

Hopefully everything will improve since, in my opinion, everything went downhill the past few years to the point I canceled my subscription.

Not sure how many people would come back since it looks like most has established their own channels on YouTube.

I think that they all learned a lesson about owning their created content.

I've had conversations with a few of them and it appears that they weren't really paid a lot.

They got caught up in doing the content creation and never focused on anything else. I can see myself doing the same thing.

It'd be hard to make it worse.

And EricG, tell your agent to stuff it. You'll most likely be much better at doing the car show things than you have been with simple weather things...like getting us some snow here.

Okay, that's partially my fault. Buying a snowblower pretty much cancelled any snowfall.
