EchoStar Asks Supreme Court to Let Unlock Local Channels

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the trouble-close-to-my-heart dept.

Consul writes "For a long time, satellite television systems were not allowed to broadcast local television signals outside of that local area. But EchoStar is asking the Supreme Court for that to be changed." This particular issue drives me insane and I hope the courts throw out the lame laws. I don't care about local programming, they shouldn't force it on me. The same tactics with Newspapers would be obviously illegal.
