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. | The MundoFox network-provided children's block on 20.3 inadvertently did not include the E/I bug for the programs noted above. All other aspects of the programming were compliant. Because this is an inadvertent error, and the programming complied with the rule in all other aspects, the programs without the E/I bug are counted towards meeting the core requirement for the MundoFox multicast. |
