Susan Flowers
Dr. Susan Flowers is a rising Media Maven. The images of women depicted on TV & in print concern her. When you begin thinking about the areas that are critically important to women & African-Americans in media, one of the biggest issues is the ability to possess, distribute and create their own images. As a dynamic, trailblazing woman of color in the entertainment industry, Dr Flowers now adds "TV Channel Owner" to her already long list of accomplishments. As an Author, Journalist, Radio Personality for WGIV and a former Ms Black Charlotte USA 2011, she is not only defining image and style, she has staked her claim upon image creation and development. Being the founder of Susan Flowers Television Network aka SFTV, Dr. Flowers will begin television broadcasting to 14.5 million Dish Network subscribers nationwide in April of 2012. SFTV's reach will increase to over 50 million households by the year's end, as other major cable and satellite Providers worldwide are also scheduled to carry her channel via the ultra modern IPTV technology.
The SFTV Network will be a cutting edge television experience. The new media technology being utilized will revolutionize the way the world watches TV by supporting true freedom of movement through a viewer controlled system. SFTV will transparently distribute content via websites, connected devices, smart phones and new media set top boxes which will stream their content from the Internet to televisions in the home. Viewers will be in full control of when and how to watch with the added benefit of intelligent, image friendly content for everyone.
Dr. Flowers is excited to embark upon an emerging technological media trail that is evolving rapidly. Not only will this new media change the way Arts & Entertainment is distributed worldwide, it will annihilate the current prohibitive cost of TV broadcasting. Most importantly however, it will significantly reduce the cost of cable and satellite for residential consumers and in some cases eliminate it entirely. Dr. Flowers is a woman venturing where only a handful of her peers have gone, yet she is never afraid to blaze her own trails toward success.
This North Carolina based, worldwide channel will be the official channel to highlight Charlotte's thriving Food & Entertainment scene to the world during the Democratic National Convention in September 2012.
