| | FCLJ Vol 46, No. 2 - Hayes |
 | | It places time restrictions on advertising during children's programming,(note 15) requires broadcasters to make an effort to air programming that benefits children,(note 16) and informs broadcasters that, at license renewal time, compliance with these factors will be considered as part of their duty to program in the public interest. |
 | | In its 1984 Report and Order, the FCC stated that television was adequately serving the needs of children,(note 43) and that any greater regulation would overburden the broadcast industry, possibly reducing the quality of programming available for children. |
 | | (note 53) By 1990, however, Congress had created a new law that was enough to force the FCC to act in the area of children's television. |
