Okay, I think a bit of perspective on this is necessary. This is a political decision, so how much is the 12% of the population within a political context?
Number of people pissed if there TV (from their perspective) suddenly stops working? approximately 33 million.
The difference in the national vote count between George W. Bush and John Kerry? about 3.5 million.
I don't care a politician is a Republican, Democrat or Other; if they turn-off the TVs of even a fraction of their constituents, they will lose their next election.
