Programming

Im tired of having to pay to watch PBS at all and then my local shows or just crap and the shows that I want to watch I have to pay a separate fee and join a club it used to be perfect that on the weekends it was as time goes by follow up with some other British comedies and now they're gone and it's just one-sided political crap mostly against Republicans

News Hour

Why aren’t you doing the Friday Covid memorials anymore? I thought that was beautiful and a good reminder of what people are going through.

My wife and I have enjoyed watching The Lawrence Welk Show reruns on Saturday night on our local PBS station, WCVE, Richmond, VA. Without warning, they dropped LW from the schedule. Is it ever coming back? Thank you.

Thumping noise on Newshour

What is the thumping noise that you hear during Newshour? It’s like someone is thumping a pencil on a desk?

To whom it may concern:

afghanistan coverage August 16, 2021

I watch the newshour most nights and respect the coverage. I was very disappointed at the biased reporting on Afghanistan, particularly from the woman reporting from the country. It was irrational, with little value except the emotional aftermath of a weak government collapsing. I expect reporting that looks at more than one perspective on the issue!

Fall of Afghanistan reporting

I am increasingly disappointed with Judy Woodruff as anchor of the PBS Newshour. Her report tonight on the fall of Afghanistan was particularly hollow. Please give us a fresh format with new anchors, perhaps returning to the show's original co-anchor format. Amna Nawaz and William Brangham would be welcomed replacements. Thank you. Louis D.

WETA

Please please please give radio host Linda Carducci another time segment and not the morning slot when I love to listen in. As the mother of a special needs young adult son, her condescending voice is obnoxious, patronizing, and doesn't sound unlike some of the many inclusion teachers my son has had over the years. From Wagner to Beethoven I cringe at her introduction and wait for the day she will extol "Good Job!" after one of her selections.

CPB bias?

The reason so many of you think the CPB is liberal is because it is right. The right way to improve society happens to be "liberal" policies. The opposite side wrongly referred to as conservative is wrong about many of their espoused ideas. If you pit "real" liberals and conservatives in a debate on the air, the liberals would crush the conservatives. These right wing ideas are self-serving and power hungry and bankrupt. Not popular. So that is why CPB appears to be liberal. Do you think the Constitution is a conservative document? No.

Music performance rights for indy TV program on a PBS affiliate.

As an indy producer, are the song performed in a program I provide to a PBS affiliate covered under the CPB music rights umbrella under which PBS affiliates operate? Thanks.
