Re: [TV orNotTV] New Amazon quiz show to get second window at Fox

[Stan S]

Same thing for syndicated “The Weakest Link”. I was also a standby guy but 
I got a flight to LA and two nights hotel in the deal. I was just as 
interested in the “how it gets made” part of the process so a day at NBC in 
Burbank watching it all was fine with me.

That was a quick verdict

They will appeal it for ten years, but it was a really quick decision all
things considered.

[TV orNotTV] God Bless C-SPAN CEOs Retiring After Decades With Channel

[Mark Jeffries]

Rob Kennedy and Susan Swain have been co-CEOs at the beloved cable public 
affairs channel for the last 12 years following employment at the channel 
since the 80s (I also remember that Swain has hosted the channel's infamous 
call-in programs many times)--Kennedy leaves in May and will be replaced by 
finance VP Matt Deprey, Swain will be replaced by one of those "national 
searches" that have become common at NFPs in the search for racial 
diversity, she will stay through a transition period:

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/c-span-co-ceo-to-step-down-in-2024-1235843334/

Kennedy and Swain had the challenges of the pandemic and the slow death of 
cable television to deal with in recent years (they don't ask for the 
outrageous carriage fees that the commercial outlets do), which makes me 
wonder why C-SPAN is not on the FAST streamers. It would seem to be a 
natural for the news tiers of your Pluto or Tubi to have the most neutral 
as possible of cable news/public affairs channels as part of the lineup.
