Well, if you want to talk about FOX's first year, the facts are that it only had SIX affiliates (PNCH has how many?) reaching 22% of US households (PNCH reaches how many?) and the flagship show was The Late Show starring Joan Rivers , a complete flop.
Now in the second year, they added some good shows, like 21 Jumpstreet and The Tracey Ulman Show, but none were guaranteed hits until people saw them.
Thanks to government subsidies for urban, minority owned company growth, PNCH (before ICPA was involved) was able to get funded without the need of a billionaire owner.
Gotta love America!
