| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Hannah Montana will air through August 27, 2011. Thirteen-year-old Miley Stewart, recently moved from Tennessee to Malibu, CA, leads a double life. By day she attends public high school, along with her older brother Jackson, but by night she is emerging pop star "Hannah Montana". Except for her family, only her two best friends, Oliver and Lilly, and her bodyguard know about Miley's career as a singer, and she strives to maintain privacy, fearing that her new classmates would treat her very differently if they knew of her stage identity. Miley wears blonde wigs while performing, and manages to escape being recognized. Miley's mother died three years before the story begins, so her dad is now a single parent. He has just begun dating again. Miley misses her mother very much. One of the songs that she writes and performs is about the pain of growing up without her mother. Unlike her brother, Miley is a dedicated student. At school, her enemies are Amber and Ashley, two girls who constantly bully Miley. Oliver and Lilly are fiercely protective of their friend. Miley has ordinary teenage insecurities, but remains true to herself, despite the allure of concert life, the limos, parties, and glamorous clothes. This is in no small part due to the solid values that her father, Miley's manager (Billy Rae Cyrus), has imparted. Tension and sibling rivalry do occur, especially when Jackson feels that his talented sister is getting all the attention. Stories examine social issues such as peer pressure, integrity, family rules, jealousy, friendship, loyalty, and issues related to bereavement. Main Digital |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | The Suite Life of Zack and Cody will air through August 27, 2011. Those episodes of "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" that air on ABC as Core Programming deliver life lessons tailored for the older child and "tween" audience. Stories take place in a luxury hotel in Boston, where twelve-year-old identical twins Zack and Cody live with their divorced mom, a lounge singer for the Tipton Hotel. The boys attend a local public middle school. One of the twins is polite and shy and excels in academics, while the other, athletic and extroverted, barely scrapes by in school, due to lack of effort. He often instigates wacky plans for outwitting hotel authorities, caregivers, and their mother. The boy's mother dates and would like to remarry. Their father is a professional rock musician who is on the road much of the year, but stays in touch with his sons. This sets up occasional parental conflicts about discipline and expectations. Parallel stories involve two teenage girls: heiress London Tipton, whose father owns the hotel, and Maddie, a girl who works after school at the hotel snack bar. Unlike London, Maddie attends a parochial girls' school and comes from a working class Boston family. Series episodes explore sibling rivalry, conflicts with parents, divorce, household and hotel rules, family budget limitations, responsibility, self-esteem, and peer pressure. Main Digital |

Riley and Todd, siblings who were raised in an orphanage after the death of their parents, long to be adopted. They find a comic book advertisement for Fleemco, an agency that will provide "Replacement" parents or adults to substitute for certain individuals. Brother and sister decide to send in the $1.98 fee in hopes of obtaining parents to replace their lost ones. They acquire an unorthodox pair of Replacement parents, Dick Daring and Agent K. Dick is a former daredevil stuntman and Agent K is a British super-spy. Neither seems to know much about parenting, although their intentions are good. Agent K's highly intelligent automobile, C.A.R., her former spy partner, also joins the household. Their attempts to forge a family and adjust to a new school are both touching and comedic. Riley and Todd discover that they can call Fleemco to request replacement of any adult whom they dislike, who is overly strict, or who is merely uninteresting. The temporary Replacements for teachers, neighbors or other community figures never prove to be as exciting or fun as the siblings had hoped, and are often immature and obnoxious. As things go awry, Riley and Todd learn that they need adult leadership, discipline, role models, order and structure. By the end of each story they are eager to return the Replacement and reinstate the original adult. Stories revolve around issues such as cooperating with household/family rules, taking responsibility, fairness, building self-esteem, and trust. Main Digital |

| 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. | KOAT's station tours for students and other groups enhance our programming by educating children on the process of delivering a program to air. KOAT airs AD COUNCIL public service announcements during Children's Programming and other Public Service Announcements during different dayparts. Some recent education topics include staying in school, reading programs, energy conservation, parental involvement and health related announcements. Other announcements focus on children's health issues such as tips on obesity, skin cancer prevention, dental hygiene, pre-natal care, child abuse prevention, seat-belt safety for children, and fire safety. KOAT even produced a children's psa with Dr. Barry Ramo, called the Ramo Rap, that teaches children about prevention of the H1N1 Virus. KOAT's community outreach campaigns are designed to address the issues affecting New Mexico's youth. The campaigns deliver positive, action-oriented messages and reports, stressing what each adult, as a parent, neighbor, or member of the community can do to help children overcome the obstacles that inhibit their growth and learning potential. Our news department regularly covers stories targeting parents and their children. Among these are "Research Rocks", a news segment that features local students and encourages students to excel in science and mathmatics. Community outreach projects include KOATs for Kids (provides coats for children who cannot afford them), and KOAT School Supply Drive(a school supplies drive providing pencils, paper and folders to children who cannot afford them. This report was timely filed on 10/10/2011. It has been amended to answer Question 15 regarding the publication and existence of the location of the station's Children's Television Programming Reports, which was inadvertently left blank when originally filed. |
