Federal Communications Commission FCC 07-24 
STATEMENT OF
COMMISSIONER DEBORAH TAYLOR TATE
Re:  In the Matter of Shareholders of Univision Communications, Inc. and Broadcasting Media 
Partners
The Children’s Television Act of 1990 requires the Commission to ensure that television 
broadcast station licensees provide programming specifically designed to serve the educational and 
informational needs of children.  I take this congressional charge very seriously, especially given the 
prominent role that television plays in our children’s lives.  The action we take today underscores my –
and, indeed, the entire Commission’s – commitment to families all across America, who demand and 
deserve quality children’s programming.  I am pleased that, by entering into the attached Consent Decree 
and, particularly, by implementing a new, company-wide compliance plan, Univision has demonstrated 
that it takes its obligation to provide such programming seriously, too.
