Weigel METV news

Everything about this deal tells you why perpetual copyright serves the
interest of copyright holders only, the public be damned. The big
studios shut down short subject animation seven and a half decades ago,
yet it's all still under copyright.

There is a statement that these short subject animation libraries are
all owned by Warner Brothers Discovery, with the exception of what
Disney owns.

Weigel Broadcasting will set up a cartoon network, METV Toons, effective
June 25. Will they maintain the original aspect ratio? Will the image be
shrunk down even if they do?

Will they censor?

Bob Bergen, a voice actor who has provided voices in modern versions of
WB cartoons, will host. The article doesn't say what the broadcast
subchannel will be or what programming it replaces.
