said the company was considering several markets that would help it turn this business into a profitable one.

“Basically, this means that in some markets we are investing less in local programming, but still maintaining the service. There are some markets where we may not offer any service at all. And there are others that we will be considering, I call it high potential markets where we will invest well in local programming, marketing and essentially full-service content in those markets,” he said.
