DIRECTV: Still Lying About HDTV
Washington, D.C. (November 1, 2009) -- DIRECTV, which was once the undisputed HDTV leader among U.S. TV providers, has added just a handful of new high-def channels during the past 18 months. In fact, some providers now offer more HD channels than the nation's top satellite service.
So, how does DIRECTV hide this fact in its marketing campaigns? And, how does it still claim to be the nation's HD leader?
Lie, of course.
In a four-page ad in the current issue of AAA World magazine, DIRECTV compares its high-def lineup against Dish Network and "cable." The satcaster says it has 130 HD channels, which, in fact, is a bogus claim all by itself.
