Your news organization is a leftist group
Texas
Feedback:
Your news organization only seems to talk about the bad past of the white race. Why don’t they mention facts if they’re going to talk about it like who gathered up the blacks to be sold from Africa to begin with. When they find out the truth they resent you. Every race has a few bad apples but all you talk about is racism how bad our history is on blacks. That’s my point right there it’s history it’s in the past it’s not what’s happening now why don’t you talk about what’s happening now besides what you’re causing in the news! For some reason you want a racial divide, why? We have to live together...Tell facts and and tell the truth if you’re going to tell any story at all! I’m ashamed I’ve watched your program most of my life, The news is supposed to deliver fax and let us decide how we’re going to feel, please tell Judy to stop telling us how we should feel, really! Please retire her, now! And tell the truth, the whole truth, or no story at all.

I would like to suggest a place that can accommodate many people . There are a lot of large schools in California that are not being used right now. They all have large cafeterias, gymnasiums, and sports fields. Use of those areas should be utilized. Thank you for your service.

Why let such a racist propagate his propaganda on pbs? PBS is supposed to just be for good people. I’ve seen him on there many times but it really hurts my feelings, he says such inappropriate and racist and offensive things. For example he was interviewing Fred armisen and told him that he’s Korean not Japanese descendant and therefore should now like kimche. Please stop this it hurts.

Any claims that you are not responsible for the otter crap that is seen on your station, is as truthful as your stations claims of balanced news. It would be clear to Helen Keller (Yes, I know not PC) how far Left your over all programing and so called news have become. You no long have a honest service to the public and should not receive a penny of taxpayer money.

Judy Woodruff
Michigan
Feedback:
Judy appears to be a wonderful, compassionate person--a great individual and even newsreader. However, her skills as an interviewer are nonexistent. Any interview with Judy becomes an opportunity for the interviewee to control the conversation, present a unpaid political commercial and leave the viewer even more uninformed. We do not need to hear more talking points from entrenched politicians.
There are many good interviewers out there--including a few a PBS. It is time for a change at the News Hour. Perhaps it is also a problem with the producers of these shows if they do not see the problem.

Maine
Feedback:
Judy Woodruff needs to retire . She is unable to show dynamic affect and drones on in a ho hum dutiful way stumbling over questions ( rephrasing fragments of questions ) and is a chore to watch ( we do not any more ). Please bring vitality back . Yamiche Alcindor is not a talented presenter and has a forced reporting style that makes watching her unpleasant . Please PBS. Move On!

March 4 PBS News hour Judy Woodruff interview with Senator JohnThune South Dakota
Arizona
Feedback:
opposing the Covid legislation as too generous to states Here is what Wikipedia has to say about South Dakota's economy North Dakota oil boom has given those who own mineral rights large incomes from lease bonuses and royalties. The boom has reduced unemployment and given the state of North Dakota a billion-dollar budget surplus. North Dakota, which ranked 38th in per capita gross domestic product (GDP) in 2001, rose steadily with the Bakken boom, and now has per capita GDP 29% above the national average. PBS has to do better interviewing ;that interview was a disgrace .Aside: You -PBS- are spending to much on "Black Lives Matter' It could enrage MAGA supporters -although I bet less than10% watch PBS As a retired physicist - I would like to see less air time spent on cultural issues and more time devoted to complexity of life due to exploding technologies while IQ's remain stagnant Frank Lipsky 928 328 2192 franklipsky79@gmail.com

White House Press Conference
March 26, 2021
Feedback:
I have been a financial supporter of PBS and that will stop. I really think you are a propaganda machine for liberal causes. There was nothing reasonable about Alcindor's question to Biden about being to nice. We've got an economic issue. We have an energy issue. We've got problems at the border. These questions were just absurd and they weren't even based up what the American people want to know about. I'm stopping my contributions as are so many people. Get some facts. Deal with reality and what America really wants to know about important issues. How nice Joe Biden is totally irrelevant to what struggles people are facing inside and outside the border.

What happened to “Washington Week” on WCPB, Salisbury?
Delaware
Feedback:
Wondering about the subject line. We are located in Dagsboro, DE but the only PBS station we receive on Direct TV is the Salisbury one. We at one time received the Wilmington PBS but it was dropped from our lineup. We have contributed to WHYY for a number of years but have never received such requests from the Salisbury station. Are the State boundaries porous or do we have to emigrate?

Feedback:
Last night Judy Woodruff and Brooks and Capeheart, failed to report the most important part of the suppression of the vote in Georgia with the Governor signing of these new voter suppression laws. The most important part is that they take the nonpartisan control of elections away from the Secretary of State and give it to the partisan GOP in the legislature. This means that they can take over any election. They can overturn the results to anyone they want to. They can throw away anyones vote if they want to. This is the heart of the voter suppression and yet it wasn't reported on. I found this extremely disturbing. I want to know why this news is being suppressed. It makes no sense to me. If you could please explain it, I'd really appreciate it.
