TV Tube Going Dark

"House agrees to move digital TV switch to June" by Hiawatha Bray, Globe Staff | February 5, 2009

If you're still not ready for the Feb. 17 switch to all-digital television broadcasts, don't fret. The US government is giving you more time....

Most US households have TV sets connected to cable or satellite services; these sets are unaffected by the changeover. But millions still rely on over-the-air broadcasts. These viewers must buy newer TVs with digital tuners, subscribe to cable or satellite services, or purchase digital converter boxes to keep watching television....

Why bother? The shit they put on really isn't worth the price.

You are BETTER OFF WITHOUT the JEWSMEDIA in your face, folks!!

I mean, LOOK AT ME and THIS BLOG!! See what it does to you?

The federal government is issuing $40 coupons to help defray the cost of converter boxes that allow older, analog TV sets to receive digital signals. But the program has run out of money....

Too bad the things cost $60; and they have TRILLIONS upon TRILLIONS for WARS and BANKS, but they RUN OUT of MONEY when it comes to YOU, Americans!!!!

Local TV stations face tens of thousands of dollars in additional expenses because of the delay. Jeanne Hopkins, a spokeswoman for public TV stations WGBH and WGBX, said it would cost about $100,000 in electricity bills to keep the two stations' analog transmitters running through June. In addition, she said the WGBX analog transmitter "is quite old and is kind of on its last legs." Hopkins said the station may ask the FCC for an early shutdown of WGBX's analog signal. Another local station, the Spanish-language channel WUNI, has warned its analog equipment is also deteriorating and may need to be shut down before the new deadline.

Translation: they will be shutting you down before the deadline.

Still, Deanna Raymond, vice president of the Massachusetts Broadcasters Association, said local stations accepted the June deadline and will start reeducating the public.

You know REDUCUATION, like in COMMUNIST CHINA or RUSSIA!!!!

That's why they want you to have your TV: so YOU can be BRAINWASHED, INCULCATED, and INDOCTRINATED by the ZIONIST PROPAGANDISTS of the MSM!!!!

"The association and individual stations will continue their educational efforts and will simply alter the date in the messaging," Raymond said.
