Universal Television Entertainment

Background
In 1996, following the rebranding of MCA as Universal Studios by Seagram & Sons, Universal decided to rename the existing MCA Television Entertainment (MTE) division as Universal Television Entertainment. On October 20, 1997, Universal sold off USA Network, Sci-Fi Channel and Universal Television to HSN Inc. (a company owned by Barry Diller) for $4.075 billion, who renamed it to Studios USA Television LLC. Therefore, it was renamed to Studios USA Pictures.
