CPB seeks to make public broadcasting more accessible to the public it serves. To do so CPB maintains a toll-free, 24-hour telephone line (1-800-272-2190), an online contact form, and accepts letters sent directly to CPB.

All comments are available on this website to be viewed by the general public. Each year, by statute, CPB transmits this public link to the White House for its report to Congress. Additionally, comments pertaining to programming are shared with the CPB Board of Directors and relevant public media staff.

New Cheeze Toast Jazz

Feedback:

Hello 

I want to find where to send my new song for the radio. 

I think you’re going to like this groovin tune and the genre is like Funk Rock. I’ve performed it live often, and Strangers point and say “Cheeze Toast” when they see me, months later. True!

It’s broadcast ready and I can send as .mp3 or .wav. and details for the song too. Cheers  Larry

Pledge drive

Massachusetts
Feedback:

Donated during a pledge drive many many many months ago. The pledge gift of a glass bowl never showed up, despite my two follow up phone calls. It was to be a birthday gift from my husband to me. I’m older, no bowl. Not a good way to run a railroad! Very disappointed. Not planning to donate again.

"Viewers like you."

Arizona
Feedback:

Isn't that slogan more than a little ancient?! I've never liked the inference that it's other viewers who are like me who support the programming, but that I am exempt. Besides, constant repetition of the same trite phrasing simply becomes noise to the viewers. Our public stations need all the support they can muster. I've been a public station member for decades as the promotions seem to remain the same. In addition, I've been an announcer on two different public radio networks.

I neither request nor need a reply from your offices.

Suicide

Florida
Feedback:

The lack of research done on your program about suicide was amazing. When someone calls the cops on you, you are arrested and put face down in the back of a police car. Taken to the hospital and held for a couple days. Then put on the street with no help or plan for help. Unless you have money of course, but how many people are there because of money ,and this awful society we live in. 15 billion to help Ukraine, but I can't get help. Forgiving all the student loans, but I can't get help. Your program will make it worse for people. When you ask for help and you don't get it it's worse. That program did nothing to show how lacking the society is in helping our own.
