Or VTV Breakfast? Or staff? <br /><br />What we're really seeing is the big shift to the internet. In 5-10 years transmitters and cable will be irrelevant. Your TV will be hooked up to the internet and content will be delivered in a new way.<br /><br />Traditional radio and television stations and newspapers will likely go the way of the dodo bird. But there will still be a need for content. And the advertisers will follow.<br /><br />The "good old days" are long gone. But there is light at the end of the interweb tubes!Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00627301651056018661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21080387.post-29902414518218174862009-05-22T10:56:04.733-07:002009-05-22T10:56:04.733-07:00Bill,

I still however would invite you to your local CTV or A station this weekend to attend an open house so you may learn first hand just what Canadian Conventional TV is all about. <br /><br />Cheers<br />MurmanMurmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11896052931804225527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21080387.post-47485962029334108342009-05-21T11:01:31.809-07:002009-05-21T11:01:31.809-07:00It's not because poor economy that "Local" TV stat...It's not because poor economy that "Local" TV stations are hurting, it's the outdated business model of airing all the shows that I can see on basic cable. CTV should try airing some of the shows the never get a chance to be seen on Canadian television. That's how CTV can save themselves, don't expect me to do it through a higher cable bill.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15950499929211750589noreply@blogger.com
