I'm calling because I'm so disturbed, after being a very loyal listener to NPR, that you are not doing anything to discuss the Hunter Biden email controversy. You are completely ignoring it and acting like it doesn't exist. I'm quite disgusted by your bias. I would like to complain that I don't want my tax dollars to your Corporation any longer. I think it is just so un-American of you to be this biased and I'm really disgusted. I couldn't help but share my feelings and thoughts. 

I was calling in concern of the PBS NewsHour. I am a local viewer in Vermont. I am concerned that it is not factual news and that it is opinionated news with people sitting there to crap on the President and talk nothing but negative opinions about him. They're not basing the news on facts. It is ridiculous. You guys need to stay neutral with politics. You guys are losing millions and millions of dollars in donations. That is a fact. I watch your news daily.

I was wondering if there were going to be any investigation or any comment that I've read on other news sites about the Hunter Biden emails. I wanted to know what NPR's position was on that and what they have been finding out. I would appreciate if something could be brought up about it so we could at least be informed. 

Dear Mr.Shields and Mr. Brooks, A former Marine asked last Friday "why can't America have 2 Presidents?"

Taught to fight after Vietnam mostly with other Marines on base after years of being kicked out of exceptional schools over fighting, this 65 year old who got a GED from Jesuit in Dallas, predictably claims to have voted, after finally staying out of prison for a score of dwi's. Yes he never went to jail while I represented him for 1 score of cases. But later, penniless, the Tennessee solution presented itself and thankfully he quit.

The video from David Brooks home webcam has been TERRIBLE for 6 MONTHS!! This is a feature segment. It looks really poor, it's distracting. Look at Jonathan Carhart crystal clear, David is badly out of focus/cloudy. Look! An excellent camera is $100. I'd be honored and happy to donate that new camera.

Please forward this to: Sydni Dreher, Senior Production Manager Michael Melia, Senior Broadcast Producer and Stuart Cohen, Editor/Camera/Tech.

This is my daily news since the live Watergate hearings coverage,(I was 14).

I watched almost all of the PBS News Hour election special, and was disgusted by the obvious liberal bias of your news anchor Judy Woodruff. At about 1 am last night (November 4th 2020) Judy Woodruff made a statement about republicans being "rural, and without a college education." I am an independent but my family is all college educated republicans and the assault on them was unjust and uncalled for. Ever since David Gregory got fired as moderator of Meet the Press, I have relied on PBS for what I felt was the last unbiased news.

In the interests of transparency, I was looking through the cpb.org website for staff and officer salaries. It surprised me to find that there is little to no information about what the staff and officers are paid, and since this organization is entirely funded by taxes, it should be somewhat easier to determine how those tax dollars are spent. I see that 5% of total revenues are allocated to administration costs, but further details are lacking. Where can one find this information?

Shame on you. I felt the discussion with the French Laundry chef was appalling and insensitive to what is occurring today. Parents can’t feed their children, millions are out of work, and many face eviction while this chef feels it important to give people (rich people) an “experience” dining for $1600.00 a couple. I turned it off because it made me sick. If he said at the end he donated $1400 to their local food bank I would have felt better.

Dear PBS,

How many hundreds of thousands of households in Maine no longer get public television? If you took a poll to determine who is able to watch PBS anymore I think you would be surprised that it truly is in the hundreds of thousands.

Why when WCSH TV channel 6 NBC switched to digital recently and all I had to do was rescan my TV to get it. As for PBS, I haven't been able to view it since you switched to something else impossible to get even on a new smart TV.
