In a previous post I talked about the possibility of delaying the digital transition. It is still my firm belief that this is a bad idea. It will only cost money and cause more confusion (see article below). However, on Monday the senate voted to postpone the transition until June 12. The vote could go to congress as early as Tuesday where it is expected to be passed. Should the vote pass in congress, I’ll post further details.
Edit: The house voted against the delay on Wednesday! What happens next remains to be seen.
Edit 2: The senate sent the delay up for vote again and this time it passed. President Obama promised to sign it into law, so the transition will once again be delayed. Let more consumer confusion and wasted taxpayer money begin to flow.
