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. One or more episodes of children's programming that was preempted during the quarter was not rescheduled. The Digital Core Programming Summary section of this report would not permit the station to include preemption reports for such unrescheduled preemptions, and FCC Staff has advised that no preemption report for such unrescheduled episode is necessary. KCRA-TV aired 4 additional, back-to-back episodes of the regularly scheduled core children's program, "Teen Kids News," which created a mini-marathon of the program on Saturday, October 13, from 9am - 11am. This mini-marathon was intended to increase audience awareness of the program and to further educate and inform the teen audience about significant news events during the fourth quarter of 2018. Engaging teen viewers in "news of the day," which is a principal goal of these additional episodes, cannot be overstated. Program content also included social and cultural developments and "feel good" stories designed to expand the literacy and world view of the teen audience. In short, these episodes were scheduled to update teens about recent events and reports, some of which they missed due to network sports coverage. These additional core episodes were promoted via on-air crawls, and the television listings services were notified in advance of their scheduling. On Saturday, October 27, 2018, The Voyager with Josh Garcia was preempted due to breaking news coverage of the synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The show was rescheduled for November 4, 2018 at 3pm.
