Knowledge TV
Knowledge TV was a cable television channel owned by Jones Media Group that broadcast educational programming. The network was established in November 1987 as Mind Extension University. Through a partnership with more than 30 colleges and universities, accredited college courses were broadcast. Students would submit papers and assignments either by mail or fax. Sometime in or before January 1997, the network was renamed Knowledge TV,〔("Education Network Jumps Pond" ), Rebecca Cantwell, Rocky Mountain News, 31 January 1997, "Knowledge TV, formerly called Mind Extension University, is available to about...".〕 and by that time was carrying several programs dealing with new media and Silicon Valley businesses, including ''New Media News'' from KRON-TV in San Francisco, and many computer education programs such as Stewart Cheifet's ''Computer Chronicles''. The network reached about 25 million subscribers, although many cable systems only carried the network part-time, using it to fill downtime on public access networks and late night paid programming blocks on networks such as Discovery Channel.
In 1999, Discovery Communications bought out the network 〔http://www.accessmylibrary.com/article-1G1-55067835/discovery-bulks-up-knowledge.html〕 and it was closed in 2000, as Discovery planned to give cable operators the option of converting the channel to Discovery Health.
