First of all I would like to thank the League’s news department for addressing the misleading video from YouTube concerning California repeaters. Even out east ive been getting inquiries wondering if we will be next in NJ/NY.

Unfortunately the original story has spread like wildfire (pun not intended) and this one in particular is making the rounds in very wide circles:

I would suggest we reach out to Glenn Reynolds and perhaps a few other outlets with our story to set the record straight.
