want to see HD program schedules in the Tampa Tribune?

I dropped a note to Walt Belcher at the Tribune requesting HD flags in the TV listings. I pointed out that USA Today has been doing it for some time now. His prompt decisive response was that only ten percent of viewers have high-def, and he ran an article last summer on it. Well we all remember that, but what does he have against promoting it or pleasing only ten percent of his readers? True his video cup of tea is along the lines of "Eight Simple Rules", but if you want to chime in on this, you can email him at wbelcher@tampatrib.com. John

I wonder what percentage of viewers are watching Maude reruns at 2AM. That gets listed.

Waste of time for now. Look at the numerous posts by LonghornXP on AVS and maybe some here. It's probably not gonna happen till NBC/WFLA gets more serious about HDTV. (Same ownership)
