TV Violence Hearing Postponed

TV VIOLENCE HEARING POSTPONED
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
The Senate Commerce Committee has postponed a planned May 17 hearing on TV violence, according to a committee source, with a bill giving the FCC the power to regulate such violence is unlikely to be introduced next week as initially planned. Apparently, the committee was having trouble lining up witnesses for the hearing (what? no one's seen this alleged violence?), which is now planned for June (June 26 is one date that has been mentioned). If they were looking for television network executives to testify, the conflict could have concerned schedule announcements, with all the network brass unveiling their fall lineups, including Fox and CW on May 17.
