Lakeland, FL’s George Jenkins HIgh School began breaching their contract with Channel One years ago.
From Jim Metrock:
George Jenkins High School in Lakeland, FL used to be one of Channel One’s favorite schools. Like nearby Bartow High, Jenkins was a “Channel One Flagship School.” Students would often be interviewed by Channel One and appear on the program. But things have changed.
Today this “A-rated” Florida school has little time for Channel One’s commercial nonsense. On my recent visit to the school an administrator told me the program was “not relevant” and the equipment was “very old.”
Channel One’s remaining advertisers would be shocked to know how many schools like George Jenkins consider the Channel One contract and its viewing requirements to be meaningless and unenforceable.
