The country mouse offers the city mouse a meal of simple country cuisine, at which the visitor scoffs and invites the country mouse back to the city for a taste of the "fine life" and the two cousins dine like emperors. But their rich and delicious metropolitan feast is interrupted by a couple of dogs which forces the rodent cousins to abandon their meal and scurry to safety. After this, the country mouse decides to return home, preferring security to opulence or, as the 13th century preacher Odo of Cheriton phrased it, "I'd rather gnaw a bean than be gnawed by continual fear."

Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. KFFX FOX 11 terminated analog programming on February 17, 2009. There was no analog programming during this quarter. KFFX FOX 11 locally produces Public Service Announcements targeting children. Our goal is to make a positive impression on children and their families. These PSA's stimulate thought, create deeper awareness, and give kids valuable practical information that they can apply to their lives. These spots focus on safety, health, education, the environment and emotional well-being. The average number of hours per week of Core Programming broadcast by the station on other than its main program stream was calculated on the basis of the date the broadcast of the programs commenced, not on the basis of the total number of weeks during the quarter. As the FCC was closed on October 10, 2013 due to the federal government shutdown, this report was timely filed.
