I couldn't care less about the DTV switch next year, but this headline, as usual, made me laugh:
Hispanics are nearly twice as likely as whites to be left without television service following the nationwide transition to digital broadcasting next year, according to a new survey.

Beginning in February 2009, full-power broadcast stations will transmit digital-only signals, meaning people who get their television programming over an antenna and do not have a digital set won't get a picture without a special converter box.
Just like that old joke about The New York Times headline:
World to end Friday; Women, Minorities Hardest Hit
What do we do?!?
