Bravo launching gay & lesbian channel online

Bravo is teaming up with PlanetOut, the largest gay media
company in the nation, to create a broadband channel at OutZonetv.com. The website
will feature various reality and documentary series targeted for a gay and lesbian audience. The president of Bravo
says it's a far less expensive risk to launch original programming on the web than it is to create a brand new cable
channel.Outzone is the third broadband broadcasting project for Bravo. Last year, the company announced it was shutting down Trio on the air and putting it exclusively on the web. It also created a spin-off web channel, BrilliantbutCancelled.com, which currently offers episodes of only one show, EZ Streets, starring Joe Pantoliano.
