Exactly. And not really IPTV, which implies a walled garden like Uverse, but
Internet-delivered television. That's what will replace FOTA TV, I think, not
cable and DBS.

Well, that's way overstated, Richard. I'll bet you that the vast majority of
Obama's exposure to the voters was via TV broadcasts from the major networks.
Not delivered OTA, probably not, but nevertheless it was exposure from NBC,
CBS, ABC, Fox.
Just because the news media hyped up how he also used social networking media
doesn't change anything. Had Obama not looked good and sounded articulate *on
TV*, for sure he would have lost.
