Hello. I watch Judy Woodruff and I am almost stricken with Mark Shields inability to hold to the subject and the way he wonders. Is there anything you can do to help him with his elderlyness and his message. He is no longer a good reciprocal partner with David Brooks and doesn't even begin to meet the intellectual capacity of Brooks.

Very loud programs/commercials in-between programs.
While watching programs on Dayton Ohio Think tv, Channel 16/14 via antenna on a daily basis, the volume of the upcoming programs or commercials if you want to call them that, are tremendously, tremendously loud once the program has ended. So much so that I have to lower the volume a great deal ahead of the ending of the current program to eliminate the blaring high volume. While I have loved PBS for ages, I'm not so much in love with this huge volume issue.
Thank you for your time and your great public service.
Political content
You are funded primarily with 445 mil. federal tax dollars. You allow very left leaning programs much politically charged with the Democratic agenda As a tax payer I resent the use of tax dollars to allow any political content unless it is documented truth, not someones personal take on any situation, or a sometimes not so subtle condemnation of the present administration The only reason I have at all for watching PBS is some of the BBC's better offerings , in deference to a political hack or four bozos with big hats, cowboy boats and a guitar to fill the void.
Thank you for keeping our country informed

Public Media Response to Pandemics

PBS News Hour
Dear PBS News Hour Staff--
I am upset and appalled at the placement of a PBS News Hour donation solicitation featuring two old white people which cut into the reporting about systemic racism in America and the interview with Black men in Minneapolis who were accused by an old white man of using a gym without permission.
Just in the middle of a statement by one of the men, the was a "commercial" interruption of two old white people asking for donations to PBS and specifically in support of the PBS News Hour. This was absolutely appalling! At this point in time, there could not have been worse timing. This donation ask last for for SIX MINUTES! There was important information that was being shared and this pledge pitch cut into the news. Six minutes late, when the pitch was done, the viewers were returned to the PBS News Hour SIX MINUTES further into the broadcast. We were not returned to where the interruption happened. Even more disturbing was that the PBS News Hour ended one minute later, at 7:54. This means there were SIX MINUTES until the top of the hour, when the next program was starting. That pledge pitch didn't have to interrupt the News Hour.
You literally interrupted a young Black man in the middle of an interview, showed us two old white people asking for donations to PBS and the PBS News Hour and they kept going on and on about the great tote bag the we will all be able to carry around to prove we are part of the same community...
MY COMMUNITY WOULD NOT HAVE INTERRUPTED IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT RACIAL INJUSTICE IN AMERICA TO ASK FOR DONATIONS AND DISCUSS THE MERITS OF HAVING MATCHING TOTE BAGS!
This is outrageous.
You should be embarrassed and ashamed.
Sincerely,
Tiza Garland
Live from Here
I'm calling to say that I'm deeply disappointed that Live from Here is being canceled. It was the biggest vehicle, or only vehicle, that I had for ever donating to public radio. Without that, I think that it will end up costing NPR more dollars. I really hope you reinstate the show.
Bias in all news reports
Can’t trust your reporting. Definitely false information and you think Americans are too stupid to know their being lied to. Poor tactics that will help Trump get elected again. Your plan will backfire!!!!
Truth
Why do we never see Chris Hedges or Ralph Nader who speak truth about our economic and political systems? It's as if I'm watching mainstream media that only tells us what they want us to hear.
Live from Here
I'm calling to report that I'm really upset that Live from Here is being canceled. It's such a great show. It's one of the reasons why I listen to public radio. I urge you with any speed, all haste possible, to bring it back whenever it can be brought back. I realize that the pandemic is taking a hit and making it hard. You can't cancel the show. It's one of the best things on radio.
CPB PROPAGANDA
NOTICE CPB PROPAGANDA WILL NOT REPORT THE SEATTLE AUTONIMOUS ZONE MURDERS
CPB and White supremacy
CPB was created to champion programming that takes creative risks and addresses the needs of unserved and underserved audiences, "particularly children and minorities." Yet 7 of 8 CPB board members and 11 of 12 CPB senior leaders are white. It's time to change. (This is a comment on the substance of public broadcasting; publish it online.)
CPB propaganda
Will CPB propaganda report the hospital insurance frauds?
PBS NewsHour
I'm curious if this organization has oversight for Yamiche Alcindor, who has been writing incredible things that I don't agree with - that there are no anarchists involved with these protests in Washington. There's clear evidence to that and I think you should start policing your reporters to basically report true happenings. This is outrageous what is going on.
Newshour June 30 2020 interview with Speaker Nancy Pelosi
We are faithful followers of the Newshour almost EVERY night. We've told many about the balance shown, the topics covered, and the inclusion of positive stories many evenings. We were so very dismayed with the length of Nancy Pelosi's almost-monologues. Two other guests interviewed before and after offered new information in a succinct manner. Please do not inflict an interview like that on us again. Don and Jane Gardner
Passport usability
Passport lacks the ability to "resume" a program you have started. Since many of the programs are information dense, this feature would greatly facilitate full appreciation of these marvelous productions.
Shields and Brooks 6/29
I believe that Mark was incorrect when he stated that veterans could be deported under the White House proposed DACA changes.
Was this just a dramatization?
