In 1982 the National Catholic Office of Motion Pictures was reestablished and became the Office of Film Broadcasting (OFB). The organization has been run by United States Catholic Conference in their Communications Department but was renamed the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops in 2001. The Office of Film Broadcasting carried on the same film rating system as the Legion of Decency. The rating “A” meant morally objectionable but falling into the subcategories of AI: Suitable for all audiences, AII: Suitable for adults and adolescents, and AIII: Suitable for adults only. The next ratings were “B”, which meant morally objectionable in part, and “C”, which mean it was condemned by the Legion of Decency. The Office of Motion Pictures began with the intention to rate every motion picture made in the United States and labored for 45 years. In 2005 after a series of controversies that arose due to reviews and in 2010 the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops reorganized, closing the Office of Film Broadcasting.
