Michigan Broadcasters Support Telecom Bills

Do broadcasters think telecom companies should be allowed to provide advanced video services? At least in Michigan they do.

The Michigan Association of Broadcasters announced support for bills in the state legislature that would allow telecom companies to provide advanced video services. The bills would allow additional providers to enter the business of home delivery of video and audio entertainment.

"These bills would allow more providers to offer programming to the consumer-including that of local broadcasters," said Karole White, president and CEO of the MAB.
