The media landscape can feel like a minefield to parents who wish to shield their children from violent, inappropriate, or immoral content. One media company seems bent on changing that.
Cable network Great American Family describes itself as “America’s premier destination for quality family-friendly programming.” It has been the fastest-growing television network for the past 11 months. Its latest ratings jump was 182 percent in September.
