E|t?

[D'Snowth]

Is anyone else getting that (e|t) sign at the top right corner of their screens on PBS? Or is it just me? It's getting annoying.

Dude,I got it too! It's a little e|l in a circle and its strange whatever it is...

 

[MuppetDude]

It means "Educational/Informational".

 

[D'Snowth]

Since when does t stand for information?

 

[Katzi428]

E/I stands for "Espanol/Ingles" (Spanish/English)

 

[D'Snowth]

Are you all sure it's an I? On my screen it looks like a "t". Or maybe it's the way the've designed the i that makes it look like a t. Now I'm cornfused!

All I know is that it mysteriously appeared in the corner of the screen of all PBS Kids programs starting last Thursday, when I was in the midst of taping the "Hurricane week" Sesame Street episodes. And it stays on the screen continually, fading away only after the PBS ident at the end of a program plays.

I find it a bit annoying, especially when coupled with the combination PBS logo/W over V logo my local station West Virginia PBS usually adds to the bottom right corner. Can't they just leave the corners of the TV screen alone?

 

[D'Snowth]

HA! I have it lucky, here in my area, PBS is the ONLY channel that doesn't have their logo in the bottom right corner. My local FOX station used to have a HUGE logo right in the middle of the bottom of the screen.

Whatever PBS station it is that I get in my province, it doesn't have that logo.
Unless that logo is, as previously stated, for childern's programming. Then, I wouldn't know, as PBS doesnt show kids shows at this time of day.
