(Broadcasting and Cable) — A group of investors including former FCC Commissioner Tyrone Brown, TIAA-CREF CEO Roger Ferguson, syndicated columnist Clarence Page and former GE and NBC exec Paul Besson, are backing the launch of a new nonfiction programming based African American-targeted cable and satellite net, the Black Heritage Network. According to former WUSA-TV GM Richard Reingold, who will be CEO of the new net, BHN is in “serious” talks with the major distributors and expects to have about seven million subs at launch, which is targeted for December of this year.
