The basic transition information was included and questions answered
with shots of analog TVs gone to snow, pictures of rabbit ears and
outside antennas.

There were images of $59.95 STBs featured several times and coupons
for them were mentioned, as well as a pitch to go to ABC's website for
detailed information about the transition and the coupons.

!!That 20% of store clerks are selling consumers digital sets they don't need
was a prominent part of the story!!

This is the first news story I've seen about the transition anywhere
on national broadcast television, although I may have missed some.
