No prices on Channel One News

Mario vs. Donkey Kong
It is strange to think of school teachers sitting at their desks as Channel One’s specially selected commercials play on the classroom TV. If taxpayers fully knew the amount of school time that is being wasted showing Channel One commercials, there would be a lot school administrators out of work. Does Nintendo really need...

Channel One News advertises unrated Super 8
From Jim Metrock: It looks like Channel One News is seeking to encourage teen filmmakers. It’s nothing of the sort, of course. Every contest on Channel One News promotes a product. The product here is a new movie coming out June 10. Channel One closes up shop on June 3, so they have...

Watching Billerica watching Channel One.
From Jim Metrock: This 1994 book was one of the few ever written on the subject of Channel One.

Below I posted a couple of screen shots...

Shouldn’t Channel One News pay these Riverview High students?
April 18, 2011 – One can’t think too highly of the administration at Riverview High School in Oakmont, PA. First they evidently are still showing Channel One News to their students.

Kids, what does “LGBT” mean?
This was not the top news story for the day. This story should never have been aired in middle schools without first alerting schools and parents. Channel One has given schools fair warning about previous news and feature stories that contained potentially controversial content, but they don’t do it anymore. Teachers and principals and...

Disney keeps talking in class.
April 22, 2011 – Ms. Teegarden is wrong. Channel One News doesn’t start after her movie plug, it started when the students saw the number TEN appear on screen.
