Yep - one of the current topics being discussed around here.
What exactly makes a channel National? or Regional, or Local?
Is TBS National? You know its actually an OTA local in Atlanta (channel 17).
Are the East/West Coast Major Network Feeds Nationals?
Are RSNs carried Conus and offered NATIONALLY nationals?
Are ANY channels carried by a cable company national? Remember, these are all pretty much regional systems. Just because TimeWarner offers a channel in one area - it doesn't mean they offer it in another area.
To my thinking, if a channel is able to be received in any systems receivers nationwide, it is indeed national.
And what do you all think?
