USO at it again??

The Outdoor Channel is having a legal review of the contract with USO. I sent them an e-mail telling them they are not the only channel to have hunting show. Those Gold Prospecting shows drive me nuts anyway.

Dear friends and viewers,

Recently there has been a court ruling that affects the issuance of big game tags in Arizona. The Outdoor Channel has received a considerable number of e-mails in which we are accused of "supporting" George Taulman (and USO) or being an actual business partner of his. To be clear, The Outdoor Channel DOES NOT "support" George Taulman or his company nor do we condone his actions. We are not now nor have we ever been a business partner of George Taulman or USO.

As with the many independent producers we deal with, he has contracted with us to air his television program beginning this October. This is a legal and binding contract. When we entered into this contract last spring, we were not aware of his pending court action.

Therefore, we have requested that our legal counsel conduct a review of our contractual obligations to Mr. Taulman.

Best regards,

Jake Hartwick Executive Vice President The Outdoor Channel[/b]

I think the ruling will get overturned in the long-run. The state of AZ. will get it's attorneys in line and get this thing straight.

The resource is very important and thus the squables will continue. The 9th Jerket court is famous for strange and even horrible decisions.

The issue I see, is if the state get's an increase in revenue from this increase in NR tags, they may not want it to change. However, if the residents make enough noise, then they will cause change.

Let's all try to get along.

Gold shows drive you nuts? Perry and his brother OWN the outdoor channel.
1.628 million shares at $34.00. not too bad from where I sit.
