| Descripción: | Abstract: This article offers a comparative analysis exploring early developments in digital television broadcasting in the United States and Canada. The U.S. transition is now complete (2009) but the Canadian analogue shut-off remains a site of controversy. Through the examination of primary documents-official reports, policy announcements, statistics, and speeches from key political and industrial figures-this article challenges traditional conceptions of broadcasting governance in the two countries.Résumé : Cet article présente une analyse comparative explorant les premiers développements de la télévision numérique aux États-Unis et au Canada. La transition est désormais terminée aux États-Unis (2009) mais l'arrêt de la télévision analogique au Canada fait encore l'objet de controverses. Par le biais de l'examen de documents primaires-rapports officiels, annonces politiques, statistiques et discours de figures de l'industrie et de politiciens clés-cet article remet en question les conceptions traditionnelles de gouvernance dans ces deux pays. |
