WLXI-TV 43 TCT Expansion

[triadradionewsman]

I was watching WLXI TV last week and I overheard Garth Koonce the founder of TCT mentioning they were getting ready to acquire a TV station in the Triangle. Does anyone have any idea which station they are buying? It looks like they are in an expansion mode this year after acquiring Channel 47 in Ohio. They spent the weekend begging for funds to build a production facility for the new station. When UNC-TV and TCT are both raising funds its hard for me to tell them apart. Since I no longer subscribe to cable I watch TCT quite frequently in lieu of the Comedy Channel.

I have been watching this station recently. They are now doing another fund-raising drive this week. do not really care much for the founder. He seems arrogant, wimpy and is ALWAYS begging for money! I have never once heard him say Thank You for the money that ha been sent in.

I love the story about how Garth disappeared for a while with the airplane.

These days we are seeing cases where many christian ministries are falling for "Corporate" Christianity, always seeking ways raise funds, i understand the cost of broadcasting, but viewers get weary when they appeal all the time, my suggestion is to
support the local church you attend.

Maybe if WRAY would run Beverly Hillbillies and Diff'rent Strokes and half the other sitcoms that show up on the Dish Network guide six hours a day, then they mights coulds makes thems somes moneys.
