    million U.S. households (approximately 84% of the 102 million U.S. television households) and The Discovery Channel and Disney’s FSPN each reach 85.2 million.3 The additional news programming is equally astounding. For example, in 1975 New Yorkers could choose from 97 hours of local and national television news programming on over-the-air and cable channels each week. In 2oOO. that figure was 1,078.5.% In 2000, Chicagoans could choose from more than 1,097.5 hours of weekly news programming and Los Angelinos from 1,034.5 hours.n The choices in these markets include local and national 24-hour cable news channels such as NY 1, Newsl2. ChicagoLand Television News, CNN, CNNfn, MSNBC, CNBC, Fox NewsChannel and C-SPAN. The latest media technology, the Internet, is quickly approaching the audience reach of cable. As recently as 1990, slightly more than one million American households were online.” By 2001, that number is 62.6 million, and by 2006 it is expected to be 86.3 million or 76% of total U.S. households.” For many, the Internet has taken the place of the daily newspaper as the primary source for news. Between 1995 and 2000, consumer time spent with online media increased 2,380%,” compared to a 9% decrease in time spent reading daily newspapers and a 7% decrease in time spent number of programming choices. Currently in Chicago, the digital cable service offered by AT&T offers 145 channels. including at least 58 entertainment channels offering mn-stop movies. siIcorm. children’s programming.

DESCRIPTORS Administrative Organization, Broadcast Industry, Clot:Rd Circuit Television, Comparative Statistics, *Educational Television, Financial Support, Fixed Service Television, Instructional Television, Material Development, *Programing, *Public Television, *Statistical Data, Televised Instruction, Television Research, *Television Surveys ABSTRACT In this sixth survey of educational television in the United States, 187 UHF-VHF educational television (ETV)stations, 27 ITPS (Instructional Television Fixed Service) systems, and 35 CCTV (closed circuit television) systems reported on their operating policies and on their programming during the week of March 9-15, 1970. The amount and kind of programming addressed to age-differentiated audiences was the primary fo:us of the survey. Some of the significant trends noted were an increase in the number of ETY stations on the air, an increase in the number of days per week those stations broadcast, and an increase in "public" programming (in contrast to instructional programming). Some of this shift to public programming was caused by the great impact of the "Sesame Street" series, which was so- classified. The rest of the shift was probably caused by the increased use of programs produced by such national organizations as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the National Educational Television (NET) network.
