		When the FCC implemented the television freeze and "ordered applications for new TV stations placed in the pending file" on 29 September 1948, Puerto Rico had no choice but to postpone its development of this new medium until the agency renewed the process for the issuance of broadcasting licenses on 12 April 1952.

	PUERTO RICO HERALD: Laughing All The Way To The Bank
		Nowadays, a half-hour of TV production time is paid at a rate of between $5,000 to $8,000, and an artist with a five-day, one-hour-long show can make between $50,000 to $80,000 a week, industry officials say.
		That growth rate is much higher than the one expected for the mainland TV network and station advertising market, which is expected to grow 7% in 2000 to about $41.3 billion, according to the Veronis Scuhler Communications Industry Forecast.
		Attempting to do the latter, they say, is a losing proposition on an island where high unemployment and low education levels lead to an average TV viewer who spends eight hours a day glued to the boob tube.
