Qualcomm MediaFLO and Verizon

Last Week, I wrote about the Samsung announcement at CES.

Todays news comes from the Verizon blog. The Verizon V Cast implementation features programs from NBC, CBS, Fox, MTV "and others".

Unlike the Samsung strategy, this does not represent local news. Bringing up interesting questions. TV broadcast rights were granted because of the need to carry local news.

What is the implication of a world that keeps dimishing the need for that local news? In other words what makes local compelling?
