In some television markets people get two different
versions of the same channel. This is usually caused
by affiliates being nearby, for example; while living in
New Jersey receiving the ABC affiliate from both New
York City and Philadelphia, or living in Southern
California and getting both the Los Angeles and San
Diego stations.
For the most part, these appear to be the same
channel in all except local news and some daytime
programming, with the exception that one is actually
closer and more clear than the other.
These channels, in reality, should not occur.
Television markets are set up to focus around ONE
city, and offering two different versions of the same
channel in one market can split viewer-ship in the
ever-competitive ratings race. If you are to watch the
channel with worse reception, from the city that is
further away, you'll start to notice that the news
reports major events that never occurred, on people
that aren't real, on technology that shouldn't exist,
the ads are for products that you have never heard of.
The conspiracy theorists think that these television
stations belong to an alternate world. They point to
the fact that the news tends to be getting worse over
there, more separate from our own. There are reports
of looking into an alternate world, and invading it for
their own. Just pray they aren't talking about us.
