Newspaper confirms existence of HDTV
August 5th, 2007Shocking news today for suburban Detroit readers: HDTV broadcasts can be received with an antenna! For free!
Cable TV companies have allegedly conspired to hide this fact, along with the existence of free DTV multicast channels—but The Oakland Press is now setting the record straight.
The newspaper headline is Onionesque: “High-definition TV available over the air, attorney says.”
Nonetheless, it’s true. Sadly, to many readers, it is no doubt news.
Here’s another fact The Press should stress: If you want to watch high-definition shows in actual HD, you will need an HDTV.
