Over 3 million households in the US will lose their reception this Friday. Are the cable companies and the FCC in cahoots with this. They are trying to force this on the low income people and seniors. The US is one of the first countries to go to digital broadcasts.
Most countries will install digital in phases across their country. The government ran out of vouches. When the seniors go into the electronic stores, they try to push some extra equipment on them.
Now these people will have to rely on talk radio for the news . So I can imagine Rush Limbaugh will get more listeners.
The FCC's acting chairman, Michael Copps, said " anyone who thinks there will be another delay had better wake up and smell the converter box".
A survey showed at the end of May that more than 10 per cent of the 114 million household that have television sets are completely or partially unprepared.
