I've lobbied PBS to set aside time from 7:00pm to 9:00pm to have celebrities read to children with animated captioning. Bedtime stories for kids without literate parents would help overcome one of the major onstacles to early reading. I think this would be a good way to grow the market for literature. Maybe publishers would be willing to sponsor paid programming that does this.
