Thornhill, Digital Media Strategist, author of the soon-to-be-released book THE DIGITAL TELEVISION REPORT, founder of DTR Support and a nationally recognized authority on change in the media marketplace, digital media and the industry-wide, 2009 DTV transition, will offer a forward-looking presentation in two parts.
