Romero thought the system would be up and running in a matter of weeks, but it took longer; and to make a long story short, it's now up and running and features episode one of the first Native drama series produced in the United States, and a selection of documentaries, music videos, news and public service announcements aimed at sending positive messages to Indian youth.

Native TV debuts again
Red Nation Media Channel programming re-debutsWhen the Red Nation Media Channel made its debut in May 2006, the response was so overwhelming it crashed the system, said Joanelle Romero, Apache/Cheyenne and founder and creative director of the burgeoning online network.

Writerfella here --
Hopefully, this kind of entry into American media will continue. What will determine its fate, however, is whether its programming content sets a standard that becomes maintainable throughout its run. Otherwise, it will become a case of 'preaching to the choir' and thus will disappear. writerfella now is interested in that medium, but it will have to sustain itself first. We...shall...see...
All Best

Right. I haven't seen this channel's programming yet. I'm not convinced that watching TV on a computer screen is the wave of the future. I like to multitask while watching TV--e.g., do bookkeeping chores or talk with a friend. You can't do that while stuck in front of a screen.
