If people haven’t been able to go out and either buy a box or get coupons after all the months they’ve had to prepare for this, then they deserve to sit in their living rooms without American Idol until they do.

It’s amazing to me. The complaint seems to be that the government hasn’t paid for enough of the changeover. Funding limit? I suppose it’ll be part of the CBS bailout, whenever that happens.

I just left a thread where a FReeper was crying about the switch to DTV. Not ready, they said.

Pathetic.

You know, some time without American Idol and MSM news and people may actually have to think for themselves again and the government can't have that happening. They can't take a chance of a lapse in TV coverage. LOL.
