Now the concept of humanism and the humanities is very noble. To be humanitarianism (sic) is good. But secular humanism is actually a type of religion. It's actually atheism in a new guise. Well, in Mobile, Alabama, 624 parents decided to do something about it. They were joined of course in that part of the 624 were teachers and students." NARRATOR: "It may go down as the religious liberty case of the twentieth century ••• The decision marks the first time, humanism, including secular humanism, has been recognized and defined as a religion. That means it can no longer be allowed a preferred position in public education but now, legally, will have to be treated with strict neutrality, as required of all religions by the Supreme Court." Attorney for the Plaintiffs, Tom Parker: "Not only does this decision ban the use of certain books in the state of Alabama which violate Constitutional rights, it also establishes some guidelines which could be used by state textbook committees or by concerned parents. -

Journal of Undergraduate Research Volume 4, Issue 10 - July 2003 Televangelism and Political Ideology: A Study of Content and Ideology in The 700 Club Keli Edwards INTRODUCTION International Christian broadcasters play a significant role in the distribution of both ideological and religious messages and have attracted significant scholarly attention. By far, the international religious broadcaster that has received the most attention from scholars is the Christian Broadcasting Network and its flagship program, The 700 Club. The program has been described as a carrier of right-wing ideologies by several researchers who have examined its content (Gifford, 1991). Its creator, Pat Robertson has skillfully combined religion with politics to form a show that disseminates conservative opinion and news coverage on current events. A framing analysis of this program reveals the conservative political bias of the news stories, while a content analysis offers a numerical description of the extent to which program content deploys this ideology. This study will attempt to answer the following questions: 1) What are the salient content categories of the 700 Club program? 2) What ideologies (political, economic, cultural, religious and social) are emphasized in the 700 Club? METHOD The first step included the viewing and analysis of the 700 Club program for recurring themes and to identify the distinct segments of the show. Once these program segments were identified, a set of categories was created into which each of the program segments could be classified. One constructed sample week of 700 Club programming was selected and recorded for the pilot study. This constructed week included shows aired from May to November 2002, taking care not to repeat any day in the week. -

Official actions of the Southern Baptist Convention and the Baptist Joint Committee on Public Affairs, however, have upheld U.S. Supreme Court decisions in the past two decades oppos ing state-supported religion in public schools. Rogers, elected to a one-year term as SBC president last June in a tumultuous annual meeting of the 13.4-million-member SBC, said, "My involvement is as Adrian P. Rogers. Period.

SPANISH BROADCASTING SYSTEM, INC. Nancy A. Ory Paul A. Cicelski Laura M. Berman Lerman Senter PLLC 2001 L Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 Tel. (202) 429-8970 April 19, 2017 Their Attorneys -ii- SUMMARY In this Petition, WSBS Licensing, Inc. and its parent company Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today. -
Motion to Strike
GRIG(, ~~~AL BEFORE THE ggy4 1989 COPYRIGHT ROYALTY TRIBUNAL Washington, D.C. 20036 In the Matter of ) ) Docket No. CRT-89-2 87CD Distribution of 1987 ) Cable Royalty Fund ) ) MOTION TO STRIKE The Settling Devotional Claimants, through counsel, hereby move to strike the following parts of the Direct Case for Christian Television Corporation ("CTC"): A. Testimon of Robert T. Kenned 1. The last sentence of the third full paragraph on page 2 should be stricken. The sentence reads as follows: we increased our cable coverage 62% (from January to November, 1987)." This statement lumps together carriage of CTC's programs on both local and distant signals. It is irrelevant to the Tribunal's determination concerning the marketplace value of CTC's programs solely on distant broadcast signals. Indeed, the sentence tends to confuse the issues by failing to distinguish local from distant signal carriage, and should therefore be stricken from testimony presented to the Tribunal. 2. The last sentence of the fourth full paragraph on page 4 should be stricken. The sentence reads: "CTC programming is a special benefit in that, we offer 168 hours of Christian programming per week, 46-1/2 hours of which is CTC-produced original programming." (emphases omitted). This statement does not report cable carriage of distant signals. Rather, it relates either to carriage of CTC's programs on CTC's own satellite network or to carriage on CTC's own broadcast station. The amount, of programming on the network and station have absolutely no bearing on the Tribunal's determination and should be stricken from the record. -
