Hundt, FCC battle over kid TV pledge

Article Abstract:

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Reed Hundt believes that encouraging pledges of increased children's television programming are important, but he denies the charge that he conditioned granting a license to Westinghouse Electric on its pledge to increase such programming. Westinghouse's purchase of CBS has been criticized by groups that believe Westinghouse stations do not air enough children's programming. Congress investigated charges that Westinghouse was pressured into compliance by Hundt.
