Summary

Dale Cripps invites readers to critique HDTV news coverage for misleading statements, framing public confusion as the industry's most damaging market impediment.

Source document circa 2003 preserved as-is



I have found a new game for us to play. It is called "critique the HDTV  news". I hope you have gone to our recently opened news room. You can reach it by clicking the news logo below. Read the leading articles and see where fact and fiction are both found and email me ([email protected]) your comments pointing to any misleading statement that would prove confusing to the general public. I will make your comments known to those who are coming to our site -- now over 200,000 hits a day. This is a first step in resolving the confusion that our industry leaders say remains the most damaging market impediment. _Dale Crips, Publisher

Program Notes:
With tomorrow's edition we bring you for the first time
the complete HDTV schedule for BRAVO (providing they send it as promised).

and

Both by popular demand and due to their steps being taken
