Click on Volume 2, Issue 1 and read the Colored Stone follow up article, "No News is Good News?".
The headline of their press release reads: "GEMS TV TO END OPERATIONAL CASH BURN IN USA, PLANS TO ACQUIRE 37.8% STAKE IN LEADING TELEVISION AND INTERNET JEWELRY RETAILER IN USA".
Who is that "leading television and internet jewelry retailer"? None other than Jewelry Television (JTV).
Gems TV's plans to close all operations in the USA are not dependent upon the acceptance of the merge with JTV. The press release states, "The cessation of the Group’s US operations is not contingent on the completion of the Proposed Investment. Gems TV will cease its US operations regardless of whether or not the Proposed Investment takes place."
A similar announcement was made by the now defunct "The Jewelry Channel", who ceased operations on December 1, 2008 at 1:00AM EST only to reappear hours later on the same station as the "Liquidation Channel".
