His influence in American culture is well documented. It’s recognizing Steve Jobs’ impact on my own life that astonishes me. I didn’t even realize it until I sat down to write this essay. I meant to question the consequences of his legacy, but it’s hard not to get lost in gratitude.

McAdams On: “The Playboy Club”
“The Playboy Club” is mostly a 1960s fashion show with a soap opera in the background. Like I said--no heavy lifting. And yet it’s been met with the kind of moralistic animus usually reserved for John Edwards.

There’s a movement among broadcast engineers to get their own kind on the staffs of FCC commissioners. The commission has a tendency to defy the laws of physics, according to engineers who agree upon the laws of physics.

I did nothing remarkable on 9/11. I lost no one. I did not so much as miss a meal.

Broadcasters just lost another channel this week in a clever end run executed by our friends in the wireless industry, who convinced the Inveigled Communications Commission to freeze Ch. 51. It’s clear the wireless industry will stop at nothing to eliminate broadcasting. If it can’t push another wholesale reallocation through Congress, it will chip away at TV spectrum one channel at a time.

The battle for world domination of the airwaves intensified this week with Google’s entrée into the hardware business and Sprint’s possible bid for Clearwire. These Wagnerian events illustrate some key dynamics. A) The shortage is cash, not spectrum. B) Technologies are evolving faster than networks can be constructed. And C) is the wild card known as “Google.”
