Malone August 2008 This thesis titled Changing Definitions of ‘Educational’ in Children’s Television from ABC/123 to I Love You/You Love Me: The Unintended Consequences of the Three-Hour Rule by CAITLIN E. MALONE has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Norma Pecora Professor of Media Arts and Studies Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT MALONE, CAITLIN E., M.A., August 2008, Telecommunication Changing Definitions of ‘Educational’ in Children’s Television from ABC/123 to I Love You/You Love Me: The Unintended Consequences of the Three-Hour Rule (110 pp.) Director of Thesis: Norma Pecora This thesis examines the children’s programming being aired by ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX owned and operated stations in Manhattan, New York in compliance with the Three-Hour Rule during the first quarter of 2008. A case study of WABC, WNBC, WCBS, and WNYW comparing children’s programming before the Children’s Television Act, after the Children’s Television Act, and after the Three-Hour Rule revealed that the Three-Hour Rule has not brought significant changes in the amount of programming for children, but that more prosocial programming was produced as a result of the regulation.
