Why, exactly, would this damage their credibility? They never said that this was an example of an HDTV "show," only of a 1080i signal. And it is, since the local affiliate is obviously broadcasting a full-time 1080i transport stream. So, what, you fault him for doing his review in the daytime (since there is almost no daytime broadcast HD)? Its an HD signal either way, even if its not an HD show. And the fact that it is displayed at all means that the part he is reviewing, the USB TUNER, is working as advertised/intended.
It's not exactly a slow news day for HD... I'm surprised at the need to post this kind of snotty sniping...
