Trump Shops Trump Shopping Network

Obviously eager to stay in the public eye and enrich himself at the same time (nice work if you can get it), Donald Trump tells The Wall Street Journal that he is contemplating the launch of the Trump Shopping Network. One option mentioned by sources would be a deal that would pair Trump's network with NBC's ShopNBC online site, which has been struggling. That would enable Trump to retain his relationship with the network that airs "The Apprentice" while linking with a Web site majority-owned by Minneapolis-based Value Vision Media. In that scenario, the Trump Shopping Network would instantly have both television and Internet presence. However, Trump told the Journal that he is looking at "a number of different alternatives" for his foray into the lucrative home-shopping field.
