I'm calling to give you feedback on your public television reporting. From my opinion, it's completely biased and it has continued to become more and more biased over the years. I am no longer donating in any form to public television. I have donated in the past over the years. I will not be watching. I will not be donating in any way or form because I believe that your reporting is completely biased and its out of control. I would vote for any defunding of public television of my tax dollars as well. I think you guys need to evaluate your programming. Maybe stay from these topics if you can't resist the biased nature of them. I believed in public television being a good service. It helped children and families in the past, but you're completely off the mark. It's being going on for too long. You get a big thumbs down from me and other people that I know. It's becoming more and more evident. You're done.
Your Feedback
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.

Communist Indoctrination programming targeting children
Over the past year PBS has shown its true color...Communist RED. Good old Arthur might as well have “CCP” tattooed on his forehead. That segment on the BLM was the last straw. I find your “Read-Along with PBS Kids” to be particularly OFFENSIVE. It should be called “Communist indoctrination Time with the Commie of the Week”.
This attempted Marxist brainwashing is going to stop. You and your comrads need to take a one way flight to Beijing. Also, take that racist toad Yamiche Alcindor, with you.
I have lots of time and I will be devoting it to contacting every person in DC who has control over PBS funding. I know that I won’t be alone in demanding that all taxpayer funding, of your dirty little Commie indoctrination network ( all 1500+ radio and TV stations), cease immediately. I will contact these people direct since I am absolutely positive that you will not include the comments on this form in any report to the White House, Congress or on the internet.
Democratic 2020 Convention
I think that Judy Woodruff has crossed the line a long time ago! She is obviously a Democrat and Trump Hater! I will not or contribute to watch PBS because of her biased commentary. I think that Judy, Mark Shields and David Brooks all need to retire. . .
Biased reporting
I use to respect the reporting of Public Broadcasting. I can't believe how biased they are. Why is the government still funding this entity.
Biased coverage of RNC by NPR/newshour
There should be balanced coverage. I’m tired of the Trump hate train paraded on these publicly funded shows. Most of the reporting only speaks in negative terms regarding Trump and this administration. Any positive news is spoken of with an immediate negative spin that is opinion based on the bias of the reporter or guest panelist. Regardless of political ideology you should have balanced non opinion reporting of the news. You are forcing people that are seeking news of The day or week to go elsewhere for Information. Please stop the biased reporting
Editorial Concerns
I thought this was a 24-hour telephone line. I don't know how much public money is going into public broadcasting, but my father would be 92 years old and he helped build PBS in several states. It is appalling and absurd to watch Judy Woodruff and Yamiche. I'm filing an FOIA request and it's going to the public broadcasting company where I live and its going into Washington DC. You people think you can get away with trying to hide what you are. It's sickening to watch that people put money into public broadcasting. You take people's money and they're so stupid that they don't understand what you are. I am going to get to the bottom of what you people are tying to do. Taking public money and pushing an agenda. Most of it is lies and crap. I will go on any program and I will debate that old windbag Woodruff and the rest of those clowns are all liberals. That is what they are. I will being filing major FOIA requests. If I don't get an answer in thirty days I will be going to my Congressman and my Senator to find out why public money is going to push this agenda of these radical, nutcase, leftwing Democrats.
PBS News Hour
Please do not invite the Trump team to speak about Biden. Invite Biden or his people to speak about Kamala and the virus. The Trump team are all going to confront the Democrats and fast talk their about how great the Trump is. Why would you ask THEM about the Democrats?? That only hurts the Bidenteam so please stop inviting them to express their opinions and get free TV time to spew their dislike for the dems and abortion etc. It was a mistake to ask them.
Disappointed
Too many talking heads. Missed farmer and young woman's stories. Woodruff too much talking. Not about her. Switched to CNN.
Republucan Convention Coverage
The coverage of the RNC convention is left leaning and intentoinally omitting some of the most effective speakers. Instead we are getting left leaning comentary so as to talk over many American patriots.
I'm petitioning my representatives to cancel all public funding or your organization. The money can be applied to cspan. I'm also asking for hearings of the commentators and management for this gross interference in the election process. What you have done is treasonous and cannot stand. Not with my tax dollars.
The News Hour
The News Hour has become increasingly partisan in tone. Yamiche Alcindor might as well be on MSNBC. Her tweet on Madison Cawthorn was unprofessional and uncalled for. Viewers do not need her to tell them what and how to think about something they can see and hear for themselves. I have written my representatives urging that the CPB be defunded. I’m sure you will survive just fine without taxpayer subsidies
NPR News - Lying About the Assaults on Sen. & Mrs. Rand Paul - NOT a peaceful demostration
Soooo painful to see NPR devolve into a fake news broadcaster. Sen. & Mrs Rand Paul had their lives threatened after the RNConvention, while they simply tried to walk 2 blocks to their hotel. But NPR called the threats and confrontations "Peaceful Protests" - LIES!!
Please get some integrity into NPR.
Clearly Biased Opinion / No Longer News Reporting / Woodruff
Judy Wudruff is no longer a reliable source of objective reporting. Her willingness to steer Left and push the Democrat agenda has become more and more obvious. Her apparent hatred for Trump is revealing itself in the tonality and discourse during interviews. I once relied on PBS for news, It's a shame that is no longer possible. Clearly Biased Opinion / No Longer News Reporting / Woodruff .... would love to see PBS return to actual news reporting .. i am holding out hope !
Democratic Convention: Freedom on Disp[ay
I was saddened to watch PBS last night, well after the Demo convention started. And all I saw was your tallking heads. Reminds me of watching a basketball game and having talking total nonsense, and making it very obvious they are not even watching the game. That what I saw last evening. Your talking heads are as dumb as the rest of us, but paid more. I find them uninteresting, aged and tired. We need to have a public broadcast system that just shows the news, and does not bend the forces of the monied class. You always state that the BBC is your model. However that media is also nonsense. Just a continued exhibit of the loving, ruling class. Big houses/Small brains. Try to do better. Do not comment on the event. Broadcast event. Do not replay 40 year old BBC content. Broadcast contemporary plays. Broadway is dead now. Use some of your cash to get one stage up and running. We do not need a cast of thousands. Many very good content can be result with just few actors. A stream such as Britbox is just ruining your reason for dumping ancient BBC junk down the PBS tube. How about live broadcasts from the Supreme Court. Congressional Hearings. Reports from the CDC. I judge that PBS has moved into the junk status, a grand idea, but not a grand outcome. Just show the convention. We can make up our own minds.
judy Woodruff
I am an avid reader and researcher- in find that Judy Woodruffs characterization of a non violent protest is way off the mark--PBS along with the controlled American media is misleading the public badly, Biden has been shielded from the public and protected by the media whores-the country is headed towards anarchy-and most of this chaos was manipulated by the DNC whose agenda was to defeat Donald Trump either before or after the election-Congress has failed in its sworn mandate to defend and protect US we the people-The GOP has not done much better- i rely on FOREIGN media for reporting accuracy-The people know and understand that neither party represents the constituency-we have turned into a fascist ologarchy, whose objection the public manifested itself in the ignition of a national rebellion over the George Floyd murder- and now worsened by gun wielding cops who have yet murdered 3 more of the public--Military complex [warned aboit byb Eisenhauer] is running this country into war--WE WILL NOT ABIDE WITH THESE ACTIONS-as well now we learn that this pandemic was LABORATORY CREATED IN THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA-CHAPEL HILL --AND HARDENED IN GREAT BRITAIN--WE WILL FIND THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE ENGAGED IN GENOCIDE, AND WE WILL DEAL NWITH THEM THAT LEGAL PROCESS IS ALREADY UNDERWAY--NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW NOT EVEN POLITICAL PARTIES IN AND OUT OF OFFICE--WE WILL TAKE OUR. COUNTRY BACK WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR HELP--IS THEIR NON SHAME ON YOUR PART FOR CONTRIBUTING TO THE CHAOS WE NOW EXPERIENCE? MILT FARROW
PBS Editorial
I am a moderate republican. I have in the past been a supporter of PBS until you became political. I can tolerate debates about ideas, ideology and other public views. I do views taking a political position and being critical of a person in a wheel chair, regardless of political views as a cheap and undignified criticism of anyone. I know you are a liberal organization and as such will act accordingly but you truly should as an organization reevaluate your standards. I no longer contribute. I found your values long ago did not align with mine.
Yamiche Alcindor
Ms Alcindor is a talented reporter. Alas, her tv delivery needs work. She speaks too fast. Often her comments are garbled and difficult to follow. Does she review her on- screen performance? Does anyone? It's a simple fix. Just slow down, modulate and articulate so we the vieeres can follow your reporting.
