"Dan, I think you're not reading my entire reply.

If a nationwide network owns its own transmission facilities, rather than
rely on affiliates, this (a) doesn't preclude small local stations from
competing, using the freed up analog spectrum and FCC local ownership caps,
and (b) doesn't significantly reduce the points of view you get over the
air anyway." --Bert Manfredi

You're right, I misinterpreted your point.  But I do still have
reservations on a nationwide transmission and find the local ownership and
control to be more conducive to local needs.  But if the business model
can't support it...
