I’ve been watching PBS News Hour for many years. Many of my friends and family have stopped watching because they believe it only airs one side politically but I refused to listen until tonight. It saddens me to see the bias so clearly. I live in Oregon and have been following the events in Portland closely. I can’t understand how all four of the reporters got the story wrong in such a identical way. It is widely understood by people living in the Portland area that there are two separate events going on.

I have supported PBS for years--programming, auctions, etc. My TVdial almost never goes off WNED KCET, WGBH, etc. I was actually appalled that the short shrift was given to the death of John Lewis---possibly less than a minute. I have seen tributes to movie stars, rock musicians, and the ilk that lasted possibly 5 minutes. Mr. Lewis was such a heroic person. I hope that PBS does a documentary about him very soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I rely on PBS news programs to give me unbiased accounts of factual events and information. This is why I urge PBS to do a better job of locating accurate stock footage to accompany stories in order to avoid the appearance of bias towards people of color. For example, on the Monday, July 20, 2020 broadcast of the PBS Newshour, a story by Amna Nawaz about the first Covid-19 case in the US began with a stock photo of an African American man on a gurney in front of an ambulance, followed by a photo of a different African American man in front of a hospital.

I've been a PBS subscriber and I've supported PBS and watched the NewsHour my entire life. I'm a little disturbed by what I've seen more recently. What I'm seeing could only be called virtual signaling, very extreme left virtue signaling. One of the specifics about that is Black Lives Matter. They basically are falling all over themselves, even with anchors saying, "we support Black Lives Matter." A news organization shouldn't support anyone. While I absolutely agree with the hashtag black lives matter, the organization itself is a very radical left organization.

Is there any chance that an episode or two of "Vicious" (the entire series was never, I believe, shown here) might be shown here in Los Angeles PBS? I believe only one episode was shown. Would you show it again? It's HILARIOUS! Well written, well acted and well directed. I'd love to see it again. Cordially, Dael Klippenstein (Los Angeles, CA)

The CPB broadcasts Amanpour and Company. The program is hosted by Christine Amanpour. If there is a case to be made for incitement to riot charges being brought against Ms. Amanpour, than CPD would be liable would it not. To whom can such a complaint be sent, please.

JULIAN ASSANGE, JULIAN ASSANGE, MANNING, SNOWDEN, JULIAN ASSANGE, ever hear of them/??? The stock market is one of the best rip off ever invented, is has privileged people who trade many stocks in minutes, can make money when stocks go up, when they go down..Your nightly coverage of the stocks just makes me boil. it is a symbol of oppression and for snobs, not for real people

I would like to see if anyone could do an investigation of NPR. The words that they're using contains a lot of bias, unconscious bias. The host of the program Latino USA said that someone's mother "went back to Mexico because she was so tired of being undocumented." I fully understand the circumstances. However, I don't think she could be "tired of being undocumented" because she wasn't supposed to be here from the very start. It's very interesting the wording that they use. It creates an unconcious bias of liberalism.

I watch Sit and Be Fit all the time and I enjoy the program a lot. I just wanted to let you know that viewers enjoy it and we don't want to see it go away.

Tonight on Judy Woodruff's report, Lisa Desjardins said that a pardon is technically for someone that has already served their sentence. When Richard Nixon was pardoned by Gerald Ford he had not served a sentance. It is unclear and ambigious what she said. Please clarify this.
