EWTN Plans HD Launch In December

EWTN Global Catholic Network said it will become available
to all U.S.
affiliates in high definition beginning Dec. 8.

"We chose to launch HD in December so we could bring our
viewers all the beautiful images of the Christmas season using the most
advanced technology," EWTN CEO Michael P. Warsaw said in a statement. "We are
the proud to say that we are the only Catholic television network available in
this format."

Alabama-based EWTN, in its 28th year, says it is available in
