Before I started working on this side of the table, I (too) thought I 
knew a lot about Broadcasting. After all, I had 23 years as a 
manufacturer of Broadcast equipment, had relationships with all the 
major Broadcasters and Networks.
Then reality hit.

John, how many years have you spent as a Broadcaster? Do you truly 
understand the subject you are talking about? Where is your data? And 
just who (exactly) are these "plenty of others" that are so willing to 
work within the proscribed confines? (the list of questions goes on, but 
I would not want to bore everyone with my tirade ;^) )
