Westinghouse Pushes Rule Limiting Prime Time TV Control
The Westinghouse Broadcasting Co. urged the FCC to adopt a rule restricting the three major networks from controlling more than three hours of prime time programming between 7 and 11 pm. The plan bans networks from rights to productions or domestic syndication, duplicating limits under the 50 50 rule. Oral arguments followed a one day hearing as critics lambasted CBS NBC and ABC. Commissioner Johnson blasted the current quality as tasteless, while Robert Montgomery called it mass mediocrity amid near 3 billion dollar annual net profits for the networks.
