According to the OBN website, they have affiliates in New York, Los Angeles, and various other places. If they really have affiliates in those places, wouldn't there be an article on at least one of their stations? Plus, I don't know of a single person who has ever even heard of this network. It just seems kind of strange to me. - HG707
Affliates?
Do they have any affliates in any of the cities listed there? I know there is no OBN affliates in the major cities but I'm not too sure about any of the smaller markets. It also seems that their website hasn't been updated in a really long time. --~Pikachu900001:27, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified one external link on Omni Broadcasting Network. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

I am adding the hoax template to this article. I can find almost no evidence Omni Broadcasting Network ever existed.
The article has two references, one of which is the alledged network's home page and both of which are now archive site links.
Googling "Omni Broadcasting Network" mostly turns up pages citing this Wikipedia article. Tellingly, the first two results after this page are for pages on fan wikis about fictional TV stations.
There is no information on stations within the network, either here or on the homepage. If it existed, this information would be verifiable with the FCC's online database.
When I manage to get through the recursive references, I find primary documents like this [1] that still seem fake. If you go to the top level of this website, Globenewswire describes itself as "Press Release Distribution Services." If you click on the homepage link in the press release, you end up here, in a directory with a folder that can't be open and a text file that looks vandalized.
The comments here on the talk page show that people were skeptical OBN was real as far back as 2006, but apparently no one ever followed up on it.
It doesn't look like anything ever existed of Omni Broadcasting Network other than the website. Based on my research, I think this is either a project that never got off the ground (in which case I'd argue it's non-notable) or something entirely fictional.
