The Digital Switch

Nearly 800,000 calls were received by a federal hot line this week from people confused about the nationwide move on Friday to drop analog TV signals and broadcast only in digital.

Amazing...this has been in the news for years, and when it finally happens after huge amounts of press and a 5 month delay, people are still confused.

And, how is being poor, a minority, or under 35 an excuse? You'd have to be living under rock not to be aware of the switch, the converter box and the coupons available.
