NEW YORK The U.S. Senate late yesterday by unanimous consent passed a bill to delay the digital TV transition until June 12.
Introduced by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-WV, the latest version of the bill represented a compromise with Republicans led by Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas.
As part of the compromise, the Senate bill allows broadcasters to make the switch before the new June 12 deadline.
The House is expected to take up its version of a bill for DTV transition delay today.
