Kudos to President Obama for wanting to hold up the DTV Transition from it's February 17th deadline. The converter box coupon program has run out of money and the FCC has botched yet another deadline. I've worked in the television industry for 15 years and this has been nothing short of a mess. The FCC has required all stations to run crawls and spots stating that February 17th is a "hard out" date for analog television, yet stores have little to no supply of converter boxes. Those who work in the media know that "To err is human, to really screw things up takes the FCC".
