"Fox  is joining ABC and NBC in trying out some new tactics for jump starting the new fall line-up this season.  \nThe television network has signed a deal with iTunes to distribute 7 of its Fox Broadcasting season premier programs for free.  The shows will be available this week. Some of the free premiers include \"Prison Break,\" \"American Dad,\" \"K-Ville\" and \"Bones.\"  This is a way to not only compete with the other broadcast networks, but a way to better leverage the Internet audience that's getting quite comfortable with watching video content online.  \nABC  has already penned a deal with AOL, while NBC  and CBS will be distributing content ahead of time or for free online as well.  It seems as though all the major networks have made a made a mad dash to complete their fall line up Internet strategy.  We'll see how much this tactic actually helps the television industry in the way it's hoping for.\n[via  LA Times]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
