CHANTILLY, VA--(Marketwire - Nov 3, 2011) - TV Worldwide, since 1999, a pioneering web-based global TV network, has been selected by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) to produce a series of webcasts, leading up to a national fundraising Veterans Day Telethon simulcast via satellite and the web benefiting the VVMF's new multi-media Education Center at The Wall. The Telethon will begin at 10 AM ET on November 11, 2011 and will be featured on VVMF TV, the new Internet TV Channel that TV Worldwide has developed with VVMF for launch during the Telethon, at www.VVMF.TV. TV Worldwide will also feature the webcast on its Internet TV channel for the community of America's veterans, USVets TV (www.USVets.TV) for the ninth consecutive year.

The 11/11/11 Veterans Day Telethon event webcast will feature appearances by well-known national media journalists and guests to include Bob Schieffer of CBS News, Bob Woodruff of ABC News, Kelly Wright of the Fox News Channel, former U.S. Senator Chuck Robb, former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge and syndicated radio host Rusty Humphries, whose father died in Vietnam. The Telethon webcast will include live coverage of the Veterans Day Ceremony at The Wall to begin at 1 PM ET, where more than 3,000 Vietnam veterans and supporters are expected to attend. Vietnam veterans and their relatives from around the U.S. will also be participating via web video conference interactively with event hosts as each hour covers a different theme from the Vietnam War

"We are pleased to again work with the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund to launch the VVMF-TV Internet TV Channel, with this important national Veterans Day Telethon fund-raising webcast to support The Education Center at The Wall," said Dave Gardy, Chairman and CEO of TV Worldwide. "Our goal during the programming for the Telethon webcast is to offer a unique historical perspective on The Wall and honor those who served and made the ultimate sacrifice, with some of the stories behind those 58,000 names."

"As we head into the 30th anniversary of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in 2012, we are excited about the launch of VVMF TV with this special Veterans Day Telethon webcast to help support our goal to build The Education Center at The Wall," said Jan C. Scruggs, Founder and President of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund.

The Veterans Day Telethon webcast at the Wall, caps off VVMF TV coverage of a series of events around the country that began in October at Times Square in New York City, where HISTORY, joined the VVMF's Call for Photos, a nationwide campaign to collect a photograph for each of the 58,272 men and women whose names are inscribed on The Wall. More than 35,000 photos are still needed to complete the display, which will be exhibited at The Education Center at the Wall.

People around the world can participate online during the Veterans Day Telethon Webcast, accessible through www.vvmf.TV, www.USVets.tv and www.TVWorldwide.com where it will also be archived after the event for a full year. In addition, the simulcast will be available to broadcast media outlets via satellite at transponder coordinates to be made public shortly.
