Issue Preview: Startup Claims Fix for Terminal Boredom

As far as ClearTV Media Ltd. is concerned, waiting at the airport doesn’t need to be boring. The Burbank company for the last three years has programmed a fledgling television network for airports featuring news and entertainment broadcast round-the-clock for weary passengers spending time in the terminals. Think of its ClearVision TV as CNN for the traveling crowd. In fact, the upstart has even managed to win contracts at two airports – Love Field in Dallas and Denver International Airport – that used to carry CNN. “They are looking for something that speaks to passengers better and makes for a better experience, and that is why they are coming our way,” boasted ClearTV Chief Operating Officer David Tetreault. ClearVision TV is currently at five airports across the nation with another three being added this summer. It’s boosted by a big partner – iHeartMedia Inc., the San Antonio media company that used to be known as Clear Channel.
