Margaret Loesch To Lead Discovery Kids/Hasbro Venture

I didn't mean to offend, and I apologize.

It's just that, well,, I get a sense that a lot of readers don't read the news around these parts. I mean, Toon Zone is more than just a forum. We're actually an animation news source (we did have the story before AWN, I'll admit), and we take pride in our work around here. At times, it does seem that people ask questions when the answers are readily available around here, and people do say things before they know what they're talking about. And yes, some people do tend not to read things without pictures, that's not fiction on my account. Perhaps the snark within gets the better of me, and I apologize.

I do take criticism personally, but only because I'd like to see both sides of an argument. And again, I apologize if you felt any offense in anything I wrote.
 
It's all right; water under the bridge and all that.

Incidentally, I do recall that this new channel won't be launching until 2010 (unless I'm mistaken). I also wonder if the "Discovery" brand name will be kept, or if it will be called some completely different (I don't think the article I read said anything about that). After all, Hasbro will be owning one half of it.
 
Ha!

The name of the network will be changed, but the Discovery Kids brand name will still be in use globally on their channels and domestically on videos, merchandise, and other things released by Discovery. Plus, Discovery gets 25% of hasbro.com in the deal.
