The U.S. Senate voted at 9:15 PM Monday evening to delay the
switchover from analog to digital television broadcasting, on a bill
sponsored by Senator John Rockefeller (D W-Va). The original date was
set for February 17, 2009, just 22 days from now; under the bill
passed in the Senate, that deadline would postponed until June 12,
2009. The House still needs to vote, but it is expected to pass
similar legislation extending the transition.
Oh that's just ****in' great. 6 more months of the talking heads on
the local yokel stations admonishing people 20 times a day in language
geared to the average 70 iq welfare queen about how their tv will
become a white noise generator if they don't get deyseff a magic box.
