  You must be psychic Maureen. I was just typing a post on this, as I just 
saw the story on the Boston Globe website. The Globe article quotes the 
president of NBC, who says WHDH is violating the terms of their contact with 
NBC, and if they persist they will strip Channel 7's affiliation. He also 
says they have a number of other strong options in the Boston market, 
including their existing broadcast license to launch an O &O. Isn't that 
license the Telemundo station licensed to Merrimack, originally WGOT channel 
60?
