Two years ago when I was writing the concept for
my television series, For Her Information, little
did I know that it would grow into a Metropolitan Chicago television show, a national digital
cable television show, a weekly e-newsletter and NOW an International television show airing on
the HOP! network in the Middle East.
Who would imagine? Now, we're in full swing
developing our quarterly magazine that will be distributed all over the Chicago area. We
are hoping to establish a special mailing list for our e-newletter readers as well.
It's SO exciting. I've come in contact
with such amazing people who have supported me in so many ways. There are too many to
mention, but they know who they are. I am truly grateful to all of you.
So, I've decided to share our press release with
you as this week's newsletter because this newsletter was designed to keep you in touch with the
show's happenings and to answer your questions.
So, here's to the HOP! Channel in the Middle
East, thank you for choosing our show!
Local Chicago TV Series
Goes International with Major Distribution in Middle
East
Starting in the next few weeks,For Her
Information will be seen weekly by more than 1.4 million viewers and broadcast in
Arabic, Hebrew and Russian, throughout
Israel. In what is considered a popular genre of
TV in the Middle East,
"For Her
Information's Conscious TV programming for women fits a new and needed niche in Israeli
programming," according to Beth Aldrich, creator and host of For Her
Information. The format of For Her Information offers
something different: answers, ideas and solutions to everyday questions featuring both a
viewer with a question or concern and an expert who can help.
The Chicago based show is
currently airing in Metropolitan Chicago on PAX TV and throughout the
U.S. on a
leading national network for inspired programming -- Inspirational Life Television,
i-Lifetv.
As distributor for this
series overseas, Andrea Stokes, International Sales Manager, Canamedia, comments:
"With the trend
leaning toward women's health and fitness programming, For Her Information
is a timely series that
will do well in the international market."
In
Israel, the
series will be broadcast via HOP! Channel Ltd,
reaching over 1.4 million households with a combined market penetration of 90%. Specifically,
For Her Information will be viewed via the latest of HOP!'s networks, the
Parenting Channel, which covers a wide spectrum of issues relevant to
parenting, relationships, childbirth, child psychology, family conflicts, health,
adolescence, aging, moral and ethical issues. "The 14 weekly episodes of For Her
Information answer the needs for most of The Parenting Channel's viewers, who are
women and working mothers."
