CHCH is SOLD! Canwest announced June 30th that the station is sold to a small company in Toronto, Channel Zero. They proposed all local news programs from 5am till 8pm, and blockbuster movies in the evening.

I live in Manitoba, and I watch CHCH.

I just hope that won't be the case, because CHEK has been around longer and it has more of a history.

[@Mrtraveler01]

Why doesn't Canwest just sell CH Montreal to Rogers or something. It already has a lineup more similar to the OMNI networks that the E! program lineup seems odd compared to the programming surrounding it.

OMG Dont SELL THEM ive Been on CH News 3 Times

[@VancouverTVGuy]

They will be now that Canwest is selling the stations and deep-sixing the E! system, which I'm glad for because I hated E! and their crappy celebrity gossipfest shows. I've heard that the Jim Pattison Group may most likely buy CHEK, which I hope they do.

Rather than Hamilton building sports arenas - they should buy the TV Station - it would better serve the comunnity!!!!!!

heh, blockbuster movies not even 2 stars and it's blurry.
