Although there is a company named "Channel Zero", most of the group's assets are held through a set of related companies with the same owners:[1]
A similar situation exists for the group's over-the-air stations, although the ownership differs slightly:[2]
Channel Zero owns and operates three specialty television channels:
Channel Zero also has an interest in three adult category 2 digital cable channels:
The 3 channels are a joint venture between Channel Zero, Adults Only Video & Sureflix Digital Distribution.
Channel Zero also provides Fight Network, a Canadian digital television service, with use of its broadcasting facilities to output its signal and operate the service. The two companies signed a deal in 2005 that allows Fight Network access to Channel Zero's broadcast facilities.[3]
Channel Zero also owns two over the air stations which it acquired from Canwest[4] and took control of on August 31, 2009. Both stations are independent and were previously O&Os of the E! system:
Both since re-added US programming in fall 2010.
Ouat Media [pronounced "what"] is a company specializing in the worldwide distribution of short films to various multi-platform mediums including broadcast television, internet, mobile devices, and other newly-developed media.
