Okay, so they get an old standard definition 32" tube TV, and the computer is just fast enough to browse the web (also is internet now part of this UBI package? And if so is it just dial up?). And that's being generous because if your concern is "news" then you could give them a free subscription to the newspaper of their choice and cut out the TV.


The tube TV is junk and more expensive to acquire in large quantities as you'll have to ship them from many different locations. They can do with a regular 720p 32 inch LCD or LED TV.

For the TV, they can use an antenna. The internet would just be government subsidized sattelite. If I were in charge, I'd let cable companies deduct 100% of normal ticket price for every free basic cable package they give out.
