Broadcasting & Cable, October, 1993

The FCC is considering fining four TV station for exceeding commercial time limits during children's programing. KPLR-TV St. Louis, KXRM-TV Colorado Springs, KMTTW-TV Sioux Falls and its satellite KTTM-TV Huron, both South Dakota, have time overages ranging from 87 to 197 instances, says Larry Miller, assistant division chief of the Video Services Division.

Three TV stations paid $15,000 each in late July for similar infringements, but Miller refused to comment on a proposed amount for these violations. The commissioners will vote on the accusations on Oct. 21.
