[Pub. L. 101–437, title II, § 202], Oct. 17, 1990, [104 Stat. 997], provided that: “The Congress finds that—“(1)
children in the United States are lagging behind those in other countries in fundamental intellectual skills, including reading, writing, mathematics, science, and geography;
“(2)
these fundamental skills are essential for the future governmental and industrial leadership of the United States;
“(3)
the United States must act now to greatly improve the education of its children;
“(4)
television is watched by children about three hours each day on average and can be effective in teaching children;
“(5)
educational television programming for children is aired too infrequently either because public broadcast licensees and permittees lack funds or because commercial broadcast licensees and permittees or cable television system operators do not have the economic incentive; and
“(6)
the Federal Government can assist in the creation of children’s educational television by establishing a National Endowment for Children’s Educational Television to supplement the children’s educational programming funded by other governmental entities.”
