There’s nothing good on channels 2 to 13 anyway.

If you haven’t done anything to get ready for this, after all these years of warnings, then four more months won’t matter. You are just too stupid and you deserve to lose your TV reception.

It lost a vote which required a two thirds majority. I expect it will be quick marched through some committee to follow the procedure so it will pass next week on a normal 50% vote.

The Messiah will take care of this, in two days the house will vote again and it will be delayed.

The Messiah wanted the delay he will get what he wants

Good. How long do people need? The only reason they considered this is that the ones who are having a hard time figuring it out are probably Democrat voters. Disconnect them from the msm/dnc tv propaganda news channels and they’re going to wake up.

No, translators, LPTV and class A’s are still going to be NTSC until an uncertain date in the future.

I just wonder exactly how many people will be affected by the analog turnoff. It can’t be that many these days.

Tom Wheeler, Obama’s transition guy for tech stuff, had a vested interest in an industry player, and called a secret meeting with these lobbyists to discuss the delay. So much for an open government not controlled by lobbyists.

This also could be the first time Obama doesn’t get his way as prez, and so soon after he got the job. The halo is fading.

Taxpayer money should not be used to pay for converter boxes.

I heard that the Obama family lost their converter box during the move. Now they’ll really have to hunt for it.

Maybe that is one more reason they are after talk radio. Maybe they are scared that when all their tv’s go out, they will only have the choice of getting their news through the radio, and they don’t want that to happen of course!
