Prohibits any public broadcasting station from making its facilities available for commercial advertising by nonprofit organizations. Permits any such station to broadcast announcements which include the use of any logogram used for the purpose of identifying any product, service, or facility of a corporation, company, or organization. (Continues the prohibition against the broadcast of an announcement using a logogram to promote such a product, service, or facility.)
