What was the first television series?
1928: W3XK, the first American TV station, begins broadcasting from suburban Washington, D.C. The station was an invention of Charles Francis Jenkins, who also aired first, a television commercial, for what, I dont know but,- An interesting side note was that: As Jenkins was also the first to air a television commercial. He was fined by the government for doing so, a practice that was discontinued, unfortunately, as the medium matured. The station grew to later become a 'Network' which I believe was either ABC or CBS, (not sure) but from what I gather the very first "on air " television show other than news and commercials or commercial like performances was a show broadcasted in 1934 called, "A lot of Time", based on the American civil war.
this is bullcrap.

There are many stations called "channel 4" and without knowing which one you are asking about, we cannot answer this question. But I wonder if you are asking about the "ethics" rather than the "ethos." The "ethos" means the company's characteristics, morals, and guiding beliefs. Ethics are more related to how an individual behaves, the person's sense of right and wrong. Most TV stations say their ethics (and their ethos) involve serving the community, as well as providing information and entertainment. But while this is undoubtedly true, American TV stations are generally commercial in nature, and their main goal is to make a profit.
There is no show after it. Those 147 episodes of the nanny are all there is. There isn't a sequel. By the way, I must tell you before you are misinformed, but "living with fran" is NOT a sequel to the nanny. It is always confused as one but it isn't.
How does gatekeepers work in the mass media?
Gatekeeping involves changing or altering communication. But there are many different kinds of gatekeepers-- some are harmless and unbiased, while others are more sinister. Let's do the sinister one first: censorship. Censors are the ultimate gatekeepers, since they prevent or ban certain material from being broadcast. There are many reasons for censorship-- often, it comes from a government which does not want opposing views to be shown. In some countries, criticism of the government (or of the country's official religion) is never permitted to be broadcast, and if a world leader speaks negatively about that country, the remarks may be censored. Other kinds of censorship may come from a cultural belief that certain topics are too controversial and should not be discussed. For example, in some cities that are religiously conservative, the stations may avoid mention of gay marriage or not report on a celebrity who is known to be gay. Sometimes, censorship is political-- a station may favor one political party, and not broadcast anything that makes that party look bad (while focusing on any stories that make the opposing party look as bad as possible).
But other kinds of gatekeeping are not as malevolent. "Time" can be a gatekeeper-- on the news, there is a certain amount of time for news, and a certain amount for commercials. A newscast on a network is generally 30 minutes long, but 18-20 minutes are for news stories and the rest are for the advertisements. Thus, even the most important news story cannot be too long, since there must be enough time for other stories and for the commercials. Editors can also serve as gatekeepers: if a story is not well-written and concise, an editor might change it-- not because of bias or censorship, but just to make the story easier to understand. Another kind of gatekeeping involves the station's format: if a radio or TV station broadcasts sports (like ESPN), for example, it won't broadcast stories about movie stars or politicians, unless somehow those stories are related to sports.
How do TV shows get onto the TV?
Ultimately, it's all down to money and persuading the right people to take on the show for broadcast. There are many different routes to air but here is a typical example:
First, someone needs to have an idea for a show. The idea needs to be refined to the point where a sampler can be produced or at least a written concept with a story board. This very first process filters out almost all ideas as very few ideas ever make it to this stage.
Step two is to find someone who is prepared to take on the concept and produce a pilot. This can be an independent producer or a broadcaster. This process is hard enough to filter out 99% of all proposals and it takes a lot of leg work to find that elusive producer who wants to risk a considerable amount of money to make the first show.
If the idea gets this far, a single episode will exist. Now is the time to approach channel controllers and get an agreement for a broadcast of a pilot. This is perhaps even harder than finding someone to produce the program in the first place. Channels are inundated with submissions from hopeful production companies. Another 99% of the remaining ideas fall here.
So, the one in several thousand that makes it to air as a pilot will stand or fall on the feedback from viewers and advertisers. Sometimes, the pilot can make it to a full season with subsequent seasons following. The remainder will have had a single airing and never make it to the television airwaves again. Despite this apparent failure, to make it to even a single broadcast is a great achievement.
Network broadcasters also generate ideas internally so some will accept very few external contributions. Even internally, the same process has to take place.
Although the poor contributions are weeded out to leave the better quality programs as final contenders, it is as much to do with contacts in the industry as it is with quality of the content. Without knowing who to approach with an idea, the chances of making it to air are virtually nil. Even with the right contacts, the chances of a program making it to broadcast are only slightly better.
For those who are intent on developing a show, good luck and be ready for some rejections on the way.

"The Colgate Comedy Hour" was the first color show on television.
A pledge drive is a period of fundraising (that usually lasts for a few days or a week) most often used by public broadcasting stations (such as PBS on television and NPR on radio). Guests, current members, and others usually explain why the station is so important in their lives and then ask others to join or renew memberships by calling in or donating online. There are often incentives for joining or renewing at a certain level/amount--for instance, if you pledge $50, then you will receive a T-shirt. Pledge drives usually occur at least twice a year and sometimes three or four times.
Why is it important to be skeptical about new information?
When you see scientific issues in newspapers, radio, television, and magazines, it is important to be skeptical and question information. It is essential to question statements made by people outside their area of expertise and to question claims that are based on vague statements. To determine whether information is scientific or pseudoscience (information incorrectly represented as scientific), be skeptical and identify facts and opinions.
