Your Feedback

I read your "CANNED RESPONSE" to anyone commenting on your "progressive/ultra liberal" programming bias. Your programming goes out nation wide, trying to lay this bias at the feet of "local stations" is BS. You receive hundreds of millions in taxpayer funds. We deserve balance reporting and programming (opinion shows, like PBS News Hour.) Seems to me you've sidestepped the 1967 Federal Law requiring your annual report verifying the balanced presentations funded by those taxpayer funds.

Why are all your show left leaning and bias against conservatives? Your complete liberal narrative even in nature shows make most people I know want to vomit. The funny part us we are not burying it.

It was quite a shock to tune into Ken Burn’s production and not find Closed Captioning. Please tell me why?

There are 3 seasons of this spectacularly witty show (Upstart Crow); I believe PBS in Maine has only run one. When can we expect to see the other seasons on channel 10? They're Wittier than any of your other shows..

Can more be done to encourage state affiliates of PBS (in my case, PBS North Carolina) to set up news programs that cover state and international news, to make up for shortcomings in the current national news landscape?

Also, can PBS consider the possibility of restructuring to a model similar to that of German public broadcasting association ARD, with regional broadcasters cooperating to form national programming?

I am to a point where if PBS news and programing goes any farther left, I will have to quit listening. I have already quit donating, because I can not support a news agency that tends to show such biased. It is more and more a liberal mouthpiece, and I can not condone the lack of factual reporting that is being substituted by implicit bias. Get back to Facts, drop left leaning opinions and just report news instead of trying to color it.

Regarding Amna Nawaz's reading of the news and her interviewing techniques, it is almost impossible to understand her flat and extremely fast delivery. There is no inflection in her tone with no pause between phrases to allow comprehension of what she just threw at you.

I believe she is very knowledge but her rendition is impossible to listen to her and comprehend. The speed at which she talks with lack of inflection must be addressed or viewers will not be willing to tolerate her.

Judy Woodruff speaks succinctly with intonation and clarity. She is understandable and therefore carries authority. Long may she stay in her position.

Dave Isey is spot on with this program, and has just reached the tip of the iceberg. Maybe its is time to up the ante, and move it to the ultimate goal of the Senate and the House, and start sitting down a Republic across from a Democrat, and maybe, just maybe they two can both learn from each other about what can be accomplished in this great nation of ours, if, and only if bills can pass in a bipartisan way, can you just imagine, just a thought, probably more difficult getting them together, but maybe in both are in session, it might just work.

I am completely disenchanted with PBS based on the amount of fundraising done and on the content of the shows that are used to inflict this nuisance on the public. Many of these shows (health, retirement schemes, rehashes of shows for which I would rather see the show itself, and very biased and one-sided coverage of topics) make me wonder why I still bother to send in a contribution. I am totally done with this and with seeing anything I would like to just "sit down and watch" go to Passport. I wish someone would burn the tapes of Downton Abbey and many of the other series produced in the last 20 years. There have to be great things in the vault, but one would never know. The broadcast material no longer fulfills its need of providing material for an audience with a wide range of interests and the contant whining, carping, and complaining cannot be helping anyone's mental health.
