The Hits to close?

On October 1st? anyone know if this is true, i thought Ch4 were plnning on revamping it?

Where did you hear this?

it was being discussed on Buzzj

What's buzzj?

The Hits is not going to close. You can tell the story is a load of hmmm as Channel four are taking on The Box not The Hits!

Googled it. No such place.

It's the same company.

Yep, they've taken 50% of all of Emap's music TV stations - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6911722.stm

Buzzj as in Buzzjack.com/forums

If you read the artical quoted from the beeb website, Ch4 have only got 50% of The Box as I thought. The other EMAP Music TV channels are unaffected.

If your going to try and be clever and quote a source, at least READ the next paragraph in the story your quoting!

Calling the division 'The BOX' was just lazy writing; the next bit tells you quite clearly that ALL 7 emap channels have been sold to a 50/50 joint venture with channel 4.

So you read the second paragraph that said:

The business runs seven TV channels including Kerrang!, Q and The Hits.
