Lighting Harvey's Fuse?

The lowest-rated of 60 cable channels tracked by Neilsen, a music video channel called Fuse, may be getting eyed by the Weinsteins, reports Broadcasting & Cable. "Ex-Miramax Pictures chiefs Harvey and Bob Weinstein may reach their goal of getting into the cable television business by [trying to buy] Fuse. The brothers are reportedly in talks with [business partner] Cablevision about purchasing the channel and [shifting] �the programming into a mix of "lifestyle" shows and movies, aimed at a more broad audience� than the 18-34 demographic Fuse targets... The network could probably be had for about $450 million."
