I actually got excited when I heard about the transaction, hearing about BCE with profits of $17.7 billion in 2009. Having a successful corporate citizen like that behind local TV is certainly a powerful ally.
Are there things we can do with local TV? I realize that one of the challenges we have with local TV is that we do have some expensive U.S. programming on it. Are there ways we can shape local TV to reduce some of the more expensive aspects of that business model, to make it something we could have greater confidence in?
When we talk about thinking creatively, what parts could we change to make it something stable in Canada?
