(I’ll write a headline after I write my story first)
The purpose of my section is to look at the money matters, focusing on the local TV stations. The main question is going to be: how much has this cost the station, in terms of equipment and operational expenses and also advertising. According to the FCC, no Colorado station has terminated analog broad casting yet.
I am meeting with Patti Dennis at KUSA (who had not decided when to make the switch) and Byron Grandy at KMGH (who will switch on June 12, following the congress mandate). I will also do a phone interview with spokespeople with the FCC. This will likely play out as a print news story, but if I can figure it out in time, I will do a 1 min multimedia package video too. My news story will also include a list, as determined by the FCC, of the news stations who have made the switch to digital.
