FCC sought to quantify the service obligations of noncommercial TV licenses by requiring that "More than half of the hours of programming must serve an educational. or cultural purpose," and programming which "teaches about religion" would count towards the new benchmark, but programs "devoted to relig. exhortation, proselytizing, or statements of personally held religious beliefs would not qualify." These distinctions did not consider such implications on the 1st Amend. and the Religious Freedom Act. Witnesses: Mark Dreistadt, Cornerstone TV; Don Wildmon, Amer. Family Assoc.; Harold Furchtgott-Roth, FCC; E. Brandt Gustavson, Nat. Religious Broadcasters; and Gloria Tristani, FCC.
