From Jim Metrock: Few California schools ever thought about experimenting with Channel One’s classroom marketing. When Oak Park High School signed up with Channel One News back in 1991 it made national news. There was no national news made when the school quietly stopped showing Channel One News to students. A school administrator there told me recently that she thought the school pulled the plug on Channel One less than a year after signing up. It is frightening to think there were superintendents of education like Ms. Susan Hearn who saw nothing wrong with advertising soft drinks and candy to students instead of spending that time on academics.
