We certainly understand that the many Issues and problems surrounding DTV have kept Mr. Smith quite busy. Although we don't have to deal with those issues in the same way your company does, it is quite apparent that DTV has been a disaster and many in the industry wish it would just go away. From what we've been hearing, many stations are extremely reluctant to build DTV facilities and definitely won't meet the deadline. Just a few days ago, one large group owner began a major lobbying effort to persuade Congress to allow DTV permits to be tumed back in. With DTV having been a failure in the marketplace, with the technical and legal issues that remain, with the lack of any business model that could sustain DTV operations and with the networks' plans to reduce or eliminate compensation to affiliates, there doesn't seem to be a reason (other than the federal mandate) for DTV transmission systems to be built. From IBN's standpoint. we want to keep all of our stations on the air. We don't sell airtime or commercials. but our mission is very important to us and to our viewers. The loss of our stations in Lufkin, Longview and Crockett would be devastating. From your company's standpoint, perhaps it would be desirable to seek a moratorium on DTV buildout obligations, especially in small and medium-sized markets.

    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.
