http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6353820.html?display=Breaking+News Recent launches by Comcast and Cox Communications propelled Oxygen to the 68 million-subscriber mark. Comcast added the women's-targeted network to its digital tiers in Indianapolis and Fort Wayne, Ind., and its expanded-basic tier in Treasure Coast, Fla. And Cox will add Oxygen throughout its Greater Louisiana region Aug. 15. Oxygen added that it will launch on several National Cable Telecommunications Cooperative systems from Aug. 1 through mid-September, including First Commonwealth Cablevision, Wave BB, Prairie Wave of Black Hills, GCI and Trinidad. "Our enormous growth this year is getting Oxygen ever closer to full distribution, which is an extraordinary achievement for any upstart network, but especially an independent one," president and chief operating officer Lisa Gersh said in a prepared statement. ================================ George Antunes, Political Science Dept University of Houston; Houston, TX 77204 Voice: 713-743-3923 Fax: 713-743-3927 antunes at uh dot edu Reply with a "Thank you" if you liked this post. _____________________________ MEDIANEWS mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
