Concur. Apparently, there was some sort of problem with how Nielsen was tracking viewers in high-def, such that putting on a high-def feed would poach viewers from the standard def feed being tracked by Nielsen. So they give affiliates the HD feed on an even worse time-delay so their Nielsen numbers don't suffer.
