How can i distribute my documentary film to channels in a profitable fashion?

I am in the process of directing a documentary and am having a hard time figuring out how to distribute my film to top documentary broadcasters such as, Discovery, National Geographic, History, and Travel channel, along with international markets as well. I was also wondering how it would work, and how do they decide on what films to choose and how much to pay. Thanks|||thats a bit like writing a book....you need to copy parts of it and send it to people with a letter of intro, letting them know it is available for a price


Do not need to copy write that and i don't think there is such a thing, but you can mail yourself a full copy, do not open the envelope when it gets back to you....thats your proof of ownership, preceding any publication....and yes it does stand up in Court as long as you do not break the seal on the envelope...and in case you have to, do it in front of a layer and an other witness, have them sign a paper saying yes this is what was in the envelope|||www.abc.com or other channels, look for "partnership"
