From what I've experienced the newer TVs aren't built for longevity. That's been a real disgusting revelation. I mean.. FFS.. you're expected to shell out a ton of cash but you can't have the peace of mind that it'll be there in working order 7 years from now. And even expecting that... There's almost an air about it that "what do you expect.. it's been 7 years, upgrade!"
So I feel you. Sorry for the rant.
So what's the deal? The AG must have had a direct line to god almighty. Yeah. It must be that. Holy hell.. if this lunatic isn't immediately fired from the post then what in the actual @#£& is this system.
