Quote:Finally, the one hope that the company had was that Granada produced a useful amount of programming in Welsh. WWN planned to use that material to offset the huge requirement for Welsh-language programming that had been forced upon them. When WWN came on air, Granada promptly dropped the Welsh programmes – probably in a mistake attempt to help WWN by encouraging Welsh-speakers to tune away. Instead it was a crushing blow.(From transdiffusion.org )
