Default OTA broadcasts being phased out?

Per :
And the commercials subsidized
OTA broadcasts as well as production costs.

....
3. Rupert Murdoch (News Corp) has reportedly talked of selling all
FOX broadcast stations. Note that that would presumably push viewers
to either cable (some owned by News Corp) or Dish (owned by News
Corp).


Sounds like there is a significant cost diff between OTA and cable.

The electric bill for running the antenna farm?
