Verizon FiOS announced that it will add MavTV-HD, a channel "created by men for men" according to the channel's web site, later this year.

“All of our original production has been shot in HD since the second quarter of 2007,” MavTV executive vice president of sales and marketing Doug Jost said in a statement. “We have been amassing a robust HD library in anticipation of our launch this year. The agreement with Verizon marks a significant step forward for our HD efforts and we couldn’t be more excited about partnering with them,”

MavTV targets the male demographic with a wide array of content, featuring sports, comedy, women, gadgets, lifestyles and gaming. MavTV HD will air compelling original content in each of these categories, including shows such as Real Guys, Real Golf, Ultimate Combat Experience, American Tailgater, Best of the Best 3 and AMA Pro Motorcycle Racing Series.

I wonder why they don't mention the bevy of half-naked women that comprise a prominent section of their web site, or the show Bikini All-Stars (they do mention Best of the Best without telling you it's also a show about half-naked women).  I'm much more likely to turn to MavTV for these shows than for AMA Pro Motorcycle Racing Series!
