The News Hour program generally acknowledges prominent persons that have died. Although the BBC acknowledged the death of J P O'Rourke, his death was not mentioned in this program.

I grew up listening to npr. Npr was unlike the usual news reporting like fox ,cnn or msnbc which are all reporting extremely left or extremely right political views in everything tgey report. CNN is simply an extension of the federal government and reports whatever the government needs people to believe and provides very persuasive reporting in favor of everything our government does. Npr was different. I have been a listener for 44 years from infancy to my current day. I even supported the fundraisers but that has changed.

Dear CPB, sorta Disappointed that you and other media outlets who accused Trump of working with Russia. . . . I'm a Democrat, some of my friends and Conservative, they said we were wrong for going after Trump for two years with no proof, that spying is espionage and that what we did was more serious than Watergate where several people were put in prison and that an apology from, you, CBS, ABC, NBC, etc. should be forth coming, that we the Democrat Party and the Media owe this to America. . . We spied on Donald Trump, an American Citizen and the President of the United States.

Dear CPB,

Would it be possible to add screen some of the following PBS shows or Welsh films on or around March 1st for St. David’s Day.

The Welsh are the 23rd largest ethnic group in the USA, but seemingly have very little representation. It would be great if PBS stations could have a ‘Wales night’ and dedicate a couple of hours to a travel documentary, a music special and maybe a movie.

Diolch yn fawr iawn/Thank you very much.

My Google Home Hub stops broadcasting both WBUR and WGBH every hour at about 3 minutes before the hour. Is this something driven by these public stations or is it a shortcoming of the Google Home system? Is there a way I can make an adjustment so that this won't happen?

PBS is a public funded corp. It's funded by ALL the taxpayers, not just the democrats!

Judy Woodruff's biased opinions politically, and otherwise, are anything but proper journalism. Walter Cronkite must be doing flip-flops in his grave because of her one sided opinions on her personal views.

Please, please, please rescue the news hour from its rapid descent into inanity. Woodruff has steadily lurched the news show into irrelevance. She invites uninformed partisan guests, who balance opinions into a meaninglessness. She asks irrelevant questions and sparks a conversation with truism from the other side. The viewers can gather no new insight into the complex problems. I cringe on how far the show has fallen from its newsworthiness height of the MacNeil Lehrer or the Lehrer Hour.

While I still watch some programming on PBS, I find that some series I used to enjoy, Frontline in particular, no longer provide balanced, non-partisan, reporting. It’s disappointing that a once informative program has become simply another mouthpiece for one political party/position.

Case in point: “Trump’s American Carnage” - with a title like that it’s clear this is nothing but a full-bore attack on Mr Trump and his political party, even though the liberal media and Democratic politicians sowed much of the division and violence.

I know it’s an opinion segment, but having a progressive like Jonathan Capehart as one of the commentators makes it uninteresting. You know what his opinion is going to be on every issue before he even starts talking, whereas Brooks surprises me a lot of the time with his straddling of the political divide. I felt like Shields shared that same consideration for both sides of the fence and would criticize the left just as easily as the right. Please consider a less-polarized personality if you ever decide to replace him.
