The Rising Revolution Against Pay-TV | Commentary
A debate is raging in the halls of Congress about the future of TV. And an unholy trinity of the pay-TV industry, the Consumers Electronic Association, and companies obsessed with broadband are fighting to disadvantage broadcast television providers and consumers in the reauthorization of the Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act, all for their own financial gain.
As Congress continues to discuss STELA, the way consumers gain access to broadcasting is more important than ever before.
It is clear that the sea change against pay-TV is directly translating to market disruption for Big Cable, and the massive upwelling of support for antennas is evidence of the over-the-air revolution that has been building for years. Cable, satellite and telecom companies have to find a way to be responsive to the consumer. If not, the American people might just put them out of their misery.
