Film Channel relocates from MN to NM

A Copyrighted article from the NM Business Weekly indicates that Albuquerque has landed 100 new jobs and a corporate headquarters for the ReelzChannel.

Gov. Bill Richardson made the announcement today with Stan E. Hubbard, chairman and CEO of ReelzChannel – TV About Movies. ReelzChannel is owned by Hubbard Media Group, which also owns KOB-TV, Channel 4, in Albuquerque.

With this addition, maybe its time for the Hubbard Media group to look at relocating Channel 4 from the back end of the Albuquerque Country Club to the middle of downtown. Doing so would create more vibrancy (think of Good Morning America) around downtown and would free up some valuable land near the Bosque, Kit Carson Park, Zoo/Bio Park for additional residential development.
