Please make sure that your feedback includes all of the information required by the Federal Communications Commission:

  • Your name, postal address, and other contact information, such as telephone number or e-mail address;
  • The name, postal address, website, or e-mail address of the video programming distributor and/or video programming owner against which a complaint is made, and information sufficient to identify the particular video programming involved;
  • Information sufficient to identify the software or device used to view the program;
  • The date and time of the incident, and a statement of the facts sufficient to show that the video programming distributor and/or video programming owner has violated the requirements;

  • The preferred format or method of response to the feedback.

2) WHERE CAN I FIND THE TRANSCRIPT FOR A PARTICULAR STORY OR PROGRAM?
As an affiliate public television member of PBS, CPTV acquires program rights and distributes programs to its viewers. Due to the fact that CPTV is not a production entity for all of the programming it airs, we unfortunately are not able to help you with your transcript request.
