MTVA: Land, No!

By BroadCasting & Cable Staff -- Broadcasting & Cable, 6/3/2002 6:34:00 AM

The Metropolitan Television Alliance, comprising 11 New York TV stations and charged with the task of getting a new tower built for over-the-air broadcasters, has decided not to renew the contract of lead consultant Doug Land.

Land was dealing with the morass of technical and political issues surrounding construction of the TV-transmission tower, which still does not have a home.

WNET president Bill Baker said the MTVA hopes to have the vacancy filled within two weeks. Not surprisingly, the list of candidates is said to include lawyers with TV backgrounds.
