To avoid getting staggering costs, broadcasters are scrambling to get the technology to allow for delayed broadcast (of just a few seconds).
The typical 7-second delays may sound about as harmless as Bill O'Reilly on mute. But the technology isn't cheap for small stations, which also face a risk of hefty fines just like their huge commercial counterparts in metropolises like New York City and Los Angeles.
While the technology ain't cheap, it's less than a half million dollar fine.
Thanks to Glenn for the tip.
