The End of Broadcast TV


No homage to the annual NAB confab, held last week in Las Vegas, would be complete without invoking the "end of broadcast TV" cliché. Today, though, it's time to tune in to a new take on that old story.

The over-expounded media dinosaur extinction theory usually implies the word "broadcast" as a synonym for linear, or time-based television. In other words, the hypothesis covers the terminal trajectory of tuning into a program on the television set at a scheduled air time. No shocker there.
