,,,but for the advertisers, who realize that if more tvs are not ready, then they will have to take less in ad revenue !! Remember, Congress is STILL OWNED BY CORPORATE LOBBYISTS !!!!!
I have my $400 new hdtv and am ready with super expensive $62 standard cable from crummy customer service Comcast. But if you go down the list of currently available tv channels you will note that most , maybe 80% are analog and were to disappear on the recent date of 17Feb2009.
Now don't expect our national media to ask any smart questions; They just usually repeat what they are told,,,either by the debunked Bush Administration or anybody they put in front of the camera. Talk about spineless lazy easymoney !!
So, let's keep the 17Feb2009 date and maybe the shoedraggers and slowpokes and procrastinators will finally get a cheap digital+analog tv antenna to put on top of their beer 6pac next to the old tv.
