Your Feedback

I have watched Mark Shields and valued his opinions for over thirty years on the NewsHour. I am deeply disappointed that tonight when he described the outcome in New Hampshire that he only said, "Bernie lost many votes as compared to 2016." Not once did he say that there were many more candidates than in 2016. I think he does a disservice to our country by leaving that out. Right now, the Democratic Party and others are trying to figure out whether Bernie has the message that will appeal to most of the people. When pundits or politicians obscure the facts, it is very difficult to find that out. I hate to see Mark playing into that and leading us this way. 

I am at the end of it with your "TRUSTED, HONEST, BALANCED" reporting. Really, Ms Woodruff, "hoping desparately" he will lose? You and Shields are nothing but a pair of ugly opinionated power brokers trying to discredit a person like Bernie Sanders as "sooo angry" and other defaming descriptions that are all about creating the same storm bias that took down Howard Dean, Imagine showing temporary results election without as much as showing the front runner, buried in your predjudices! The language Mr. Shields used about this candidate is so inexcusable and hateful that I will never trust Mr. Shields again.You sir are a disgrace to integrity. You two seem nothing if not determined to see the elites remaining go unscathed again. Friends of the Pelosis, Clintons, Wassermannn eh? Mercifully,Brooks was forever dignified and balanced. Thank you sir.

Mark Shields spoke of defeating Pres Trump by the Dems & referred to the duly elected president of our country who campaigned, debated, & won as a monarch. I regard his comments as traitorous. He should be ashamed of himself & that kind of talk causes deserved anger against those who can’t accept the results of an election. . Views like that are deplorable❗️

Hello,

This email is requesting clarification 4 questions arising after comments made on the PBS Newshour episode from 2/21/2020:

Question 1: Does PBS Newshour try to persuade voters to change their mind on a certain candidate or candidates as Newhour commentator David Brooks stated? Question 2: Of the remaining candidates, which has PBS Newshour been favoring, and which has PBS Newshour been against? Question 3: Why does PBS Newshour try to persuade voters to change their minds on certain candidates? Question 4: Should public funding be used to fund a program that has been trying to persuade voters to certain candidates?

Here's the context for these questions:

David Brooks stated the following on the episode from 2/21/2020 (transcribed from youtube to the best of my ability): "I still remain a little skeptical of how effective the russians are getting people to persuading people to change their mind on a certain candidate. There's no magic formula for that. We try here every week and it doesn't work". These comments were followed by apparent laughter from David Brooks, Mark Shields, and Judy Woodruff.

Here's the original source video containing the comments (see time 31:13 through 31:27): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akVRaDZYLuw

My name is Mike. I am a concerned voter in California. I would appreciate a response to the 4 questions asked above.

Thank you.

Erik Visser Hello, My mother in law Lucille Boehm had a hit in 1946 with her song ' The Kangaroo Polka' performed by Jerry Wald, published by Shapiro, Bernstein & Co. Lucille passed away on in 2014. I just can't seem to find that old track. Is there a possibility that WNYE or any radio station has a copy of the song and perhaps would be so kind to send me a Mp3? That would be great ..! Sincerely, Erik Visser Amsterdam Holland / Europe

In today’s news lead by Judy. Once again mis information and biased against Hindus in India was reported in today’s news of Feburary 25 2020 This time the violence in New Delhi India is been mentioned as “Hindu mobs “ causing the riots . While it’s the Muslim mobs rioting from several days. I have been followingNPR from the last 18 years but these last few years NPR has been reporting misleading news creating an anti Hindu bias. Clearly this trend has been increasing more as Muslim news readers / reporters have started joining NPR. It’s unfortunate to see that this once unbiased news channel has been reporting biased news in this era of mis information This behavior is never professional No wonder many of the Indian origin members stopped following your news organization after Kashmir misinformation

I listen PBS newshour podcast daily on my evening drive back to home and love their news coverage.

However in recent podcast PBS newshour I was astounded by coverage of PBS regarding recent riots in Delhi. The podcast mentioned that "Hindu mobs attacked Muslims and 10 people died". This was clearly communal violence which needs to be condemned unequivocally and where both sides lost people including policeman Ratan Lal and Intelligence officer Ankit Sharma.

PBS should not broadcast such lopsided and inaccurate coverage as it can unnecessarily challenge social harmony for Hindus living in USA.

Thanks for taking this feedback and please continue with brilliant coverage which PBS is known for.

I'm calling because I just watched the Brooks and Shields segment on the NewsHour about the assignation of Suleiman, the Iranian general. I'm really dismayed at the apparent sanction of the American government assassinate people without taking the proper consideration. I think it's really dangerous. They made it sound like this was an okay thing. We're on the brink of disaster, potential catastrophic disaster, walking into another war like Iraq. It is irresponsible of PBS and the NewsHour to let these guys come on the air and not give thorough, unbiased opinions on these things. 

Claims of a diverse media is not accurate. The shows are mostly white orientated. The black talk shows, topic, complaints and discussion are no ware to be found on Public TV. Most of the black actors are being shown as criminals in movies as well as on news Broadcasting. The public media is showing pregidous actions in there programming and it appears to be a premeditated, sinikely established conspiracy against the male African decendants.
