   Why can't local stations buy and broadcast programs produced by   
   speciality channels like Discovery, HGTV, Food, etc?   
      
   Or, why can't those speciality networks set up their own broadcast   
   transmitters?  Imagine that you could pick up the Discovery channel, or   
   the History channel OTA (over-the-air).  They would have NO local   
   content.  No 6 or 11 o'clock news.
