Why the grandiosity/pomposity? Can local stations provide services and 'events' (what humans call programs) to audiences independent of companies that traditionally have provided the bulk of the content?
Sure they CAN. There are some example of stations that have done just that, either by choice, or when their network affiliation is yanked. KRON in SF and WJXT in Jacksonville are now independents, with a focus on news and more local programming.
Can they do so profitably?
That's the real trick, ain't it! Regards Craig ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways:- Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at FreeLists.org
