Hughes Television Network
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hughes Television Network (HTN) was an American television network created by billionaire Howard Hughes. It never lived up to its dream of being the nation's fourth TV network, following the demise of the DuMont Television Network. HTN limited itself to broadcasting sports events, including the Stanley Cup Finals and special programming, and provided facilities links to a loose network of stations, who were usually independents or affiliates of ABC, CBS, or NBC.
