Do not let the current president of our country dictate what can be aired on TV! I trust your anchors & their abilities to tell the public the truth. it is not BIAS if you report news contrary to his Project 2025 directives. "We the People", not "I the President."

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.

I truly hope that the President's executive order holds water and that you are unable to continue to waste my hard-earned money on biased propaganda. Your organization and the outlets that it funds quite literally brought this upon themselves. Step out of the leftist propaganda masquerading as journalism game and I would have no problem changing my mind.

Feedback:
Dear Board members,
We are writing to thank you for your strong statement on the creation, management and sustenance of CPB and its operations. We are breathing a sigh of relief, knowing that you exist because of Congress and the law it passed, which has authorized you to operate, to receive and allocate funds, free from any political pressure, regardless of its origin.

Do not allow Trump to bully you into not funding important information channels such as PBS and NPR.

Feedback:
You are not a neutral media but are far-left, no matter how much you lie about it. We think it would be great if all funding were pulled from CPB, PBS, NPR because of your bias. We don't watch or donate because of your ultra-liberal programming. If you are concerned about Trump being told by a judge not to do it, who cares. A judge has no enforcement power so what then? And Congress is Republican so next budget they can officially cut any funding.
And you may be in good company because most English residents are tired of funding the extreme BBC programming.

If I were Ms. Harrison I would not be trying to flex my tiny muscles and making threats. Who controls all three branches of government? I would be trying to make a deal. Such unmitigated hubris.

The president is out of line and knows it, as with so many others of his actions.
The question will be: who can weather through until he gets voted out, impeached, or otherwise implodes in scandal.
We can do this, everybody. Talk with family and friends. Give what you can. It's worth it.

The CPB has my complete support against White House and Republican led attacks effecting funding. I’m 73 and have watched and listened to many beloved shows throughout my life. If I turn on the TV it’s more often than not to watch Nature, Nova, Finding Your Roots, Masterpiece Theater, etc. Quite frankly the only substantive shows on television or radio. They are unbiased, informative and entertaining. Please let me know how I can assist with this ludicrous situation.

I want to let you know that I strongly support your mission. I regularly listen to nation PBS radio stations (for music) and watch PBS TV for news and local history topics. I have also recently written my lawmakers and encouraged them to support CPB, which I believe they will (No. Virginia)
Administrative Law
Oregon
Feedback:
SCOTUS CJ Roberts is from the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. His expertise is in Administrative Law.
In response to Executive "Orders," I have not seen error assigned to decisions being -- ARBITRARY and CAPRICIOUS, or ABUSE OF DISCRETION.
If completely fair and equal and truthful communication was a requirement of the First Amendment, then Fox News would be shut down, and Trump would have long ago been silenced. The evidence that PBS has not wrongfully communicated any information, in violation of the First Amendment, is the fact that Trump still insists thet he won the 2020 election. The equitable principle is, UNCLEAN HANDS.
Further, a person can admit guilt, even if they are innocent. The government engages in such untruthful plea bargains all the time. Trump's admission against interests -- that he was elected for a second time in 2020 -- means that this is his third time elected, which is prohibited under the 22nd Amendment, that plainly states ELECTED, not held or served: "No person shall be ELECTED to the office of the President more than twice..." By his own lies -- Trump is unlawfully acting as President.Thus, nothing he does is in the capacity of the "office of the president of the United States."

I am for the first time reaching out to relay how much I enjoy listening to my local NPR and watching the many wonderful shows on PBS.
Please fight the President's unlawful Executive Action to stop the federal funds that help the budgets of both broadcasters. Even though it is an unlawful action it is still disruptive and not what the majority of the people desire. I so enjoy all of your programs, so please fight this.
Thank you for all that you do.

Do not give in to President Trump's recent executive order regarding CPB. Do not go down without a fight. To the fullest extent of the law, continue to provide the same quality programming & prevent the loss of smaller, rural public stations. These are education resources that have been fundamental to my life & now to the life of my family. Fight fight fight!

Yes it should be pulled. I listened to 90.9 in Philadelphia from when after WYSP went off the air, until the 2016 elections. I alway appreciated the unbiased stories and reporting. After the leadup to the elections you 100% reverted to biasness against republicans. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
Do not bend the knee

Feedback:
As you know, an executive order is not a law, nor can it override congressional appropriations. CPB/PBS/NPR supporters have your back as long as we are financially able, but we would never forgive if you capitulate like other institutions have.
Do not obey in advance or bend the knee to these fascist actions.
Fight. Fight hard.

CPB, NPR, PBS, does not need or deserve one penny from the American taxpayer! Nothing, zero, nada. You have donations, membership drives and paying sponsor ads. Add to that the numerous socialist foundations. You take tax dollars and use it to attack America, the Constitution, Christianity, and freedom. I consider that as treason worthy of life in prison at hard labor. NO PAROLE, EVER! Death to Marxists!
