Shame on you. Up until a few days ago I could watch the news via the Fire stick/PBS app almost in real time. Now the current day's broadcast is showing up 2-3 hours later than available on broadcast. This in no way shape or form inspires me to donate to public broadcasting.

Baseball
I live in Great Britain, in the heart of England, in what is known as the Black country. Being the heart of the Industrial revolution. Many years ago I watched your series on baseball in the USA. It filled me with such wonder and tears that a I bought a baseball bat and ball and taught my children to play it. Ive tried getting the series on DVD with no luck. Kept my eyes open in the UK for a repeat. To my sadness, nothing. This is my last hope. Please repeat it. At present watching one of your fine series on the "Dust Bowl" Brilliant station. But im getting old now , but Field of Dreams still sends hairs on the back of neck rising each time I watch it. And im British. Well perhaps its the dreams of an old man and I will hear nothing BUT. Old men can dream dreams. Kind Regards. Gary E. Bowen

I’ve been watching PBS News Hour for many years. Many of my friends and family have stopped watching because they believe it only airs one side politically but I refused to listen until tonight. It saddens me to see the bias so clearly. I live in Oregon and have been following the events in Portland closely. I can’t understand how all four of the reporters got the story wrong in such a identical way. It is widely understood by people living in the Portland area that there are two separate events going on. There are the demonstrators who know to go home sometime after dark because they know the night shift comes on around 11:00pm. The night shift are the rioters. Also Mayor Wheeler in an interview stated he didn’t want federal law enforcement to leave. He just wants them to stay inside the Justice Building. This is very different from this evenings report. The only explanation is that PBS News Hour was pushing a narrative. I will not watch again.

Why on earth would you give Peter Navarro a soapbox? He didn’t answer Judy’s questions. Why didn’t she cut him off?
Reporting Bias
I used to watch the McNeil - Lehrer without fail. It was superb and about as unbiased as one can expect. Today the 'news' reported is highly selective and is basically an extension of the Left and the Democratic Party. Honestly , it is rather pathetic and a joke trying to pose as 'journalism.' Today , I might watch it for a few minutes just to see the thinking/propaganda of the liberal establishment. Then I turn it off.
Unfortunately there is no TV news that even tries to offer objectivity. PBS, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN are conventional Left and Fox is conventional Right with MSNBC being far Left. PBS could provide a real service by reporting the news like in the old days and then have a segment of balanced political pundits for the remaining hour of the segment. Of course, that will not happen, PBS is committed to its Leftist focus.
Too bad. With very few exceptions (again when it ventures into the political realm) PBS offers excellent- the best on TV.

Will CPB report on California voter fraud?

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

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.
