Re: Perfect Example of Government Intervention... The Government gave the broadcasters free radio frequencies to implement digital TV. In exchange the networks were supposed to turn in their old frequencies for use in things like emergency services communication and licensing out to wireless communication.
It's not the Government's fault that the broadcasters dragged their heels in getting things working. The Government got sick of waiting and gave them a deadline, postponed it a few times and finally said enough is enough.
If anyone is to blame it's the broadcasters and TV manufacturers for not getting their act together. You might as well throw in retail chains as well for trying to sell TV's that they knew wouldn't work in a year or two to customers.
