QOTD

“We don’t really start from the point of view of saying, ‘What do we do to the broadcasters?’ We start from the point of view of: ‘Is there really a spectrum crisis?’ For broadcasters to argue, as some of them have done, that there is no evidence that there will be such a thing is really quite extraordinary. One can’t predict the future with 100% certainty, but it reminds me of certain comments that others were able to predict that others said, ‘Well, we don’t know until we get there.’ Some things are predictable. If you look at certain spectrum usage and its impact, it is quite remarkable how Americans are moving to smart phones and what that does to spectrum.”
