INDIAN LAND, S.C., Oct. 15, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- INSP has gained additional significant distribution with network launches in Comcast's Heartland Region, which serves Greater Indiana and Michigan. Beginning this month, INSP can be seen on channel 298 in Indiana, and on channel 391 in Michigan. The announcement was made by Dale S. Ardizzone, Chief Operating Officer for The Inspiration Networks.
INSP, which is now available throughout the Heartland region, continues to gain tremendous momentum among affiliates. Its new launches in 2012 alone have already exceeded 5 million.
"The launch of INSP offers Comcast subscribers more than 95 hours a week of our award-winning family-friendly entertainment," said Ardizzone. "With a 500% ratings growth in the past 24 months, INSP is one of the fastest growing networks today. Our viewers are loyal and passionate, and we are also pleased that many look to our network as a standard bearer for wholesome, family-values programming. I am excited that viewers in the Heartland region will now be a part of our fiercely loyal audience, and will see why the Parents Television Council™ (PTC) awarded INSP their coveted 'seal of approval.'"
"I also am proud of the work of our Worldwide Distribution team. SVP Mark Kang and his entire team have worked extremely hard to build a strong relationship with Comcast. The addition of these new households demonstrates how valuable INSP is becoming, and the growing interest in our distinctive content throughout the country."
