[SOURCE: USAToday, AUTHOR: Leslie Cauley]
Bowing to growing pressure in Washington, Comcast and Time Warner are considering offering cable-TV customers a special "family tier" including Disney, Discovery and other family-friendly offerings, say people with direct knowledge of the companies' plans. The plans, which are still being finalized, are expected to be announced within the next few weeks, these people say. Gene Kimmelman, senior director of public policy for Consumers Union, says he is encouraged: "It's wonderful to see the big cable companies finally responding to the concerns of customers."
