Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. "Word Travels" is a TV series that follows freelance journalist Robin Esrock and national travel columnist Julia Dimon as they battle deadlines, jetlag, culture shock -and each other- to file the best travel stories possible. While travelling to exotic locations and writing about enlightening experiences may sound like an adventurous occupation, the life of a travel writer is not always as glamorous as it seems. Filmed in 36 countries across six continents, each half-hour episode reveals the real story of professional travel journalism-the truth behind the byline, and reinvents the way travel shows are currently presented.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. "Swap TV" is a weekly half-hour television series about two teenagers from different backgrounds "swapping" lives for a weekend. The series meets the educational and informational objectives of the FCC's Children's Programming requirements for children ages 13-16. The programs explore the opposite lives of the participating youngsters as they learn about different cultures and family settings. Young viewers are exposed to the special interests of the "swapping" youngsters and what adjustments they make to a different life situation. The program teaches tolerance of various races, creeds and backgrounds while exposing an appreciation to someone else's way of life. Each episode is informative, entertaining and promotes good social values and respect. "Swap TV" is closed-captioned for the hearing impaired and displays the "E/I" icon throughout the broadcast.

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. KWKB ceased broadcasting an analog as of 02-06-09. Therefore there was no analog broadcast in the 4th Quarter. The form demands we give an analog channel and answers to questions 2 and 3. Questions 7b and 11 yes for filing purposes only... the true answer is no.. Antenna TV network inadvertently omitted the E/I logo from episodes of "Animal Rescue Classics" that aired from October 5 through December 15, 2013. The network scheduled "make good" telecasts of all of the affected episodes, with the required "E/I" logo, with notice to viewers (using on-screen graphics informing viewers of the special times) and the national program listings services, on December 28, 2013 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. EST and on December 29, 2013 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST.
