		other information programming; talk shows, music
		videos, and variety programming.

		of eight years. Pays careful attention to themes that
		could threaten their sense of security and well-being.
	C8+	Children over eight years old: Contains no portrayal
		of violence as the preferred, acceptable, or only way
		to resolve conflict; nor encourages children to imitate

		is one of the dominant elements of the storyline, but
		it must be integral to the development of plot or
		character. Language usage could be profane and

		might contain depictions of violence, which while
		related to the development of plot, character or
