August 3, 2023 To The Corporation for Public Broadcasting: I purchased a portable television with an antenna. I purchased an extra antenna, as well. Both antennas are only receiving signals from three channels. There are 18 free channels in my area. I cannot see Telemundo (14) or Univision (18) which are free channels on 14 and 18. These are the Spanish channels. Sincerely, A****a M******z-S**o

Ayesha Rosco's voice
is intolerable--grating, harsh, loud, impossible to listen to. Radio is about SOUND, and there are so many other newswomen of color on NPR whose voices are pleasant and authoritative. I've stopped listening on the weekends just to avoid having to hit the stop button when I hear her---
Atlantic and Washington Week
11 August: WW and the Atlantic is weak. The Atlantic is great written, but it’s two additions to WW are not as good. The final statement was trash. Did you sell this to The Atlantic? Dont you see the, regrettable, difference?
Washington Week in Review - New host
I am disappointed by the new host or should I say new moderator of Washington Week. I do not find that Jeffrey Goldberg acted as a moderator. He is a very partisan person and has long been so in his roll as editor of the Atlantic. The Atlantic used to be a literary magazine, but it lost its roots when it left Boston for DC. Under Goldberg and his immediate predecessors, The Atlantic has become a mouth piece for the left-wing. I cannot imagine Goldberg doing otherwise for Washington Week. On yesterdays introductory show he led the discussion with his own biased point of view instead of eliciting thoughts and ideas from the guests. I have been a long time listener of the show and I long for the kind of discussion and analysis and REPORTING that occurred when Paul Duke was in the lead-chair. I hope for a different outcome, but I expect that Goldberg will be delivering the same old tired 'journalism' that is threat to 'our' democracy.

Unabashed Partisan Commentary at the Expense of reporting
PBS Newshour and really anything that PBS puts out has become unabashed left wing propaganda. Since you are publicly funded, it is your duty to be neutral reporters. Instead, you are 'dug in' partisans.
At least ONE of your stories every single day will be a race bait story. I am so disgusted with CPB and PBS that I will not watch your programs anymore. You have forgotten your dignity and responsibilities as reporters.
Come back to a strong stance as pro American and pro Traditional reporting. What do I mean? Objective and neutral reporting. Is that too much to ask/expect? Not if you purport to serve the public.
That is all.

Amna Anwaz
I concur with another comment 11/21 about Ms Anwaz. She is a miserable host of Newshour. She is opinionated and clippy! Next to Geoff Bennett, she is short on smarts and presentations. She reminds me of the former host(ess) of Washington Week. These shows are suppose to be educational, not showy...both women interrupt and Anwaz is curt...I don't watch when she is on screen. I am sustaining member of PBS...Leslie B*****a M*****l
Interrupted TV broadcast signal on both kqed and kqed plus
HELP PLEASE!!!! For the last two weeks my excellent signal reception (dish roof antenna) has suddenly become constant terrible and impossible to watch: "fail to receive" "no broadcast at this time" distorted pics, lines, dots, scattered sound bites. What is going on??? Problems at SUTRO broadcasting again? FYI-- channel 4 is constant "fail" and channel 65 is responding same as 9 only worse. Tonight July 3 I'm getting a solid fail for the last hour since 8:30pm.
Starting two weeks ago the local Foothills Amateur Radio Society was/is preparing for the Annual Amateur Radio Field Day. (Since over ten years ago, a close by ham operator using an extra strong signal was the source of our TV interference, I've tried to follow up through their organization but have no response yet.)
I'm on Vineyard Dr. in Los Altos and a sustaining kqed member. Jackie S******s

Why don't you offer any information on how to apply as a contestant on this show?
A Modest Enquiry into the Necessity of a TV License.
Hello there. I would like to suggest that you start having people with television sets pay a compulsory monthly TV License fee. The reason why I'm suggesting this is because PBS and NPR have not been receiving that much funding lately, and only 15% of all PBS funding comes from the U.S. government. That's where my idea comes in. Many countries have been using this system of funding for their public broadcasters for quite some time. Here's how it works: Everyone who owns a TV set with an antenna hooked up to it or watches TV online using the Internet has to pay this fee. People will have a bill sent to them every month. Then the money goes to you, then you send it to PBS and NPR. However, there will be discounted costs for seniors, people with disabilities, and people close to or below the poverty line. I think this would be a great idea.
Sincerely,
Anonymous
