U.S. Broadcasting Television to Cuba

In addition to Radio Marti, the Office of Cuba Broadcasting is now sending television signals to Cuba via a circling C-130 Hercules aircraft.
"Television Marti at this moment is transmitting for the first time from an airplane in the United States of America," read the Saturday evening announcement. "It is already in flight, sending the signal from Television Marti to Channel 13, fulfilling the initiative adopted by President George W. Bush to speed up a democratic transition in Cuba."
It's not known what programs will be on Television Marti, but if it turns out to be PBS, Castro will probably require all Cubans to watch and learn more about socialism and anti-Americanism.
