Study: 8.5 Million Households Face Poor DTV Reception
Converting Analog Television to Digital TV Not Working for Millions of Americans
Since America went "digital", there are many people who simply can't afford the converters or a new TV. There are people who live in areas where the digital range simply isn't "far enough". There are people who live in Alaska, the desert in Nevada, in Appalachia who don't have access to cable and the new digital signal is too poor to allow them much TV.
For all these people, the radio is there best source of reliable news, information and even entertainment.
I visited relatives outside of Gabbs, Nevada and was surprised they were without TV for exactly those reasons. I've always taken it for granted.
this is the same government you think should be in charge of health care, and now you are pointing out they cannot even get TV right.
I really don't know what planet you are from, but there is not a single household in this country that is dependent on NPR as its only source of news.
Yea, in Appalachia and the outskirts of Alaska and the desert in Nevada, everyone has cable and newspapers. I'm from earth. I live in a huge country that has many poor people.
You however, must live in the "Land of Milk and Cookies". What else could explain the lack and knowledge compounded by the delusions?
Every time I think right wingers can't possibly be any more ignorant, one pops up to surprise me. Well, I'm surprised.
Many have Satellite TV installations...There is even Internet by Satellite...
Hmmmmm..........
And even so...for those that don't have access, ya think it could be by choice? -Nah-
