Why isn't my TV working?

 This is really frustrating.  I went to sleep last night and the television was working fine.  Norm MacDonald had just come out to greet Conan O'Brien on the Tonight Show.  I vaguely recall my wife surreptitiously...in that floating state between awake and asleep...grab the remote.  I didn't think much of it at the time.

But when I woke up. nothing worked.  No Matt Lauer.  No Diane Sawyer.  Just snow.  In June.

There must be a reason.  Has anyone else reported any trouble?  I called up Channel 4 and they said everything was working fine.  They said something about a digital television.  I told them my television was, in fact, a digital tuner.  I haven't had a turn dial on my TV in 20 years.  Just point the remote and click.

Is this some kind of conspiracy to get people to buy televisions?
