Read it. When did y'all become politicized with Joe Biden and lying about this Immigration Bill? Why do y'all want to help Joe Biden destroy the country? Why aren't you covering what's true and really going on? Joe Biden is trying to allow this mass migration. He ain't trying to help America, and you heard what the FBI said. A dead gum attack is imminent here. Y'all wanna war on our soil, but if you help Joe biden's crazy plan. That's what you're doing with the Democrats. I thought CPB was supposed to be for the people. I never thought I'd see the day when CPB is politicized, so I could hear ohh used to be have integrity and be with the people and tell the truth. Now y'all are so bipartisan. It's, it's not even worth watching. Y'all you know that border deal is, is after 5000 people come in then they're going to turn them around.

My name is Heidi N*******n. I listen to WJSB in Gainesville GA. There have been multiple radio segments where the information being announced repeats itself after about 15 or 30 seconds. That's been happening for two days. I don't know if there's something going on the news segment. Continues but several times you have two or three sentences that are stated in an obviously prerecorded segment, and then, it stated again and then, the information goes on to be delivered. I don't know if you're aware of this. I don't know if you have somebody monitoring stations, but this has happened for the last two days. I just thought somebody ought to know. Thank you.

This seems like a general... Hello, long time listener. Numbers and can't reach you, not allowed as listed on the Internet. Your main phone number is 879-9600, and I just called it twice, and the only opportunity I have is this to leave a message. Actually, I need information. I was hoping to speak with the human being, who could connect me with the proper source of that information, but that's not that available to me. There's a general comments line. This seems like a general comments line that I've been shunted over to. It's available to me only that I can see under the heading main phone number on the Internet, and so I am somewhat disgruntled. Certainly disappointed. Just I suggest you open some opportunity for telephone contact with the people.
SC D-primary - All Things Considered on NPR Friday - today - the SC D-Primary
Gee - more reporting, please: Both Dean Phillips, a sitting US Congressman and Ms Williamson are on the SC primary ballot for President. Yet, ATC does not mention this. Why is ATC/NPR but not least mentioning this in their news coverage? Their poll numbers (and votes(?) in the South Carolina primary will suffer from the lack of coverage. Below is a cut'n'paste from the AP Challenging Biden on the South Carolina ballot are U.S. Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota and author Marianne Williamson. Phillips received about 20% of the vote in New Hampshire, while Williamson received about 4%. S***e M*****n

Hi, my name is Mike Wheeler, and I work with Freddy's Garden. We are a food and nutrition company that offers products with no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, and no added sugar. It really makes us unique as a branded company. It's our social mission. All the net products from the sale of our products to retailers, it goes to a 501C3 classroom that we own, which introduces animation content and educational modules to help kids eat more vegetables and lead or live more active lifestyles by gardening. Our program has been implemented with over 1200 students here in the Grand Rapids area with tremendous results. The results suggest that kids willingness to try vegetables can go up as high as 37%. We'd like to send our information to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Who should we send it to? My telephone number is area code 818-***-****. We're based in Grand Rapids, MI. My e-mail address is m******.************r@gradysgarden.com. I'm looking forward to hearing from someone soon. Thank you so much for your patience, and your future support. Bye, bye.

Hello, hi. I realized that this was the type of form that I would be accessing when I called this number, so I'm really not totally prepared. I thought I would prefer to talk to a representative. Perhaps this is a better format calling with regard to WTVP TV in Peoria, IL. Understand that they have had some possibly questionable... Saying I felt like that happened at all, and I either support or not, the people that were in office at that time on the Board, various things or do at this point, I have solid evidence to announce or ridicule them. However, it has come to my attention as I look into this what little there is information available that um several of the people that have been appointed or in some way taken over the operation of the television station and different things like that in all regards are heavily conservative, and I'm afraid that dirty content that might be offered by CPB might be refused or formats of broadcast might be changed to meet a more conservative agenda. I enjoy arguments on both sides of any topic, but I'm just afraid that some of the more politically correct information on different groups maybe you might call minority groups of one sort of another will be not requested by or not promoted by the new leadership. I don't have any reason, I haven't heard anything that would make me believe that. I don't want you to think that I am you know trying to blame somebody for something. I just, I just wanted you to be aware of the fact that it's possible that some things that I have had the opportunity to learn about won't be allowed for me to see anymore because they're objected to by certain groups of people. It seems to me for the most part that CPB has been very fair in exposing and in explaining both sides have many topics and not just be and I guess what they would call non conservative or liberal although probably maybe they are a little bit more liberally leaning but I just don't think that the presentations that they make and all of their intricacies are more important to my decision making and my way of feeling about people that might be allowed under this new administration and I hope that I'm wrong you know as I say I I'm not I'm just putting that out there for whoever is in charge of funding when they get this thing squared away and organized I hope that it's not turned into a 24 hour Christian revival organization nothing against that it's just that there's other places I can see that and this should be what it is open to everything thank you so much for your time I appreciate it and I could say I'm not trying to hurt anybody feeling anything I just want to make sure that people realize that who's running that and make sure that nobody's allowed to change the type of format that CPB or CPB yeah has has put out there because the variance of the programming and ideas that you guys buy and they buy or however all that works is it's phenomenal I'd hate to see it change so goodbye.

Hey there. I am receiving emails in my personal e-mail from a company called Everfi asking me to complete harassment courses for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, so this is an e-mail that kind of looks like it's for employees of maybe I am not an employee of CPB, and I have no relationship to CPB. I don't understand why I'm receiving the emails and image it says to contact the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to be removed from whatever list I'm on. My phone number is 503-***-****. Again, the number is 503-***-****.
