Why would they make this change?  Isn't there a significant difference
between Fox ratings and WB ratings nationally?   Isn't much of the WB
programming aimed at an African American audience?  African Americans make
up about 1% of the Maine population.  And most importantly, where will I be
able to watch "King of the Hill"?
