continual activation
if public broadcasting is free why should i have to activate each time i would like to watch programing way too much trouble and would seem that it becomes arduous for those people who only watch infrequently i have been watching pbs for fifty years and iti has become a nightmare, . why do i need a password when my taxes pay for PUBLIC tv
Advertising
I am SO disappointed advertising has come to public television. How can these companies say they are contributors/benefactors when we are forced to watch their advertising. Not OK.
Newshour
How bout having a conservative viewpoint since your liberal biased news is taxpayer funded. David is a flaming liberal. Sad. Please provide balance. You do not. Cape hart and Brooks are only giving the liberal media perspective and spins left and does not ask any hard questions. Sad. No press inquisitiveness, just spew liberal blather. Please hire someone that represents the other 50% of America. McNeil and Leyer are vomiting Woodruff and Brooks in projectile fashion.
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.
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. PS: Carducci plays too many waltzes -- no wonder young people feel so disconnected from "white" classical music and no wonder I have to turn off WETA until 10AM when, mercifully, Carducci, vanishes from the air waves.
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.
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!
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?
lawrence welk
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.
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.

Negative comments about PBS programming
Funding
None of the programming CPB supports interests or benefits me. Why do I have to pay for it? You should transition to an advertisement supported platform instead of using money that could be better used for the betterment of all taxpayers.
Media/New Hour
YOU ARE TOO BIASED!!! My God, please stop the bias. You are definitely not serving the American People. You are partisan.
Washington Week
I appeal to Yamiche Alcindor to stop beginning her questioning of each week’s guests by saying to them that she is going to “turn to you, so-and-so. Talk to me a little bit about ….” It’s a verbal tic that is both annoyingly repetitive and uses many more words than needed to accomplish the same objectives.
News stories
I was a avid watcher of your programs. But now our sees that you only choose to petal to the left and their radical extremisms. That is not the America we love. Therefore my family and I will no longer watch your stations, programming or contribute to you and yours in any way!!!!
Publicly funded media needs to drop its bias
It is much more important for public media to get defunded than the police. Over the past five years public media has done a nosedive away from positive, culturally improving content, to slimy, bottom of your shoe, dregs of 'I'm offended' devisive content. This shouldn't be rewarded with grants and high paychecks. These 'writers' are a disease.
Defund NPR
We are fed up! NPR does not deserve federal funding. NPR cut down the “Declaration of Independence” and we do NOT trust anything NPR reports. NPR is anti- American and should NOT be getting grants, federal funding or any tax dollar help. We demand defunding of NPR now! Cheryl Thompson
NPR funding
It is long past time to defund NPR. It has had a biased, liberal agenda for years and now outright states such beliefs opening by holding the Declaration of Independence in derision, and at taxpayer expense.
