Don't you Americans have a way to file complaints? In Canada we have an Ombudsman. I routinely submit reports on the CBC. Everything gets responded to and is recorded.

does that do anything, or do they just ignore reports unless it is to report something isn't woke.

I get friendly responses with explanations. The stats are kept. Once in a while a con with balls brings it up.

that's nice but I mean do any changes occur, to me filing a complaint is worthless, only mass protests and agitation leads to change, this is like a strongly worded letter, easily ignored.

Not the changes I want. I'd want the CBC sold off to Alex Jones. ;)

Ha, yes, NPR has an ombudsman. It's a joke. All they do is write a blog post summarizing the complaint, if that.

Maybe they'd take a hint if they got a lot of complaints. Jeffrey Dvorkin at ombudsman@npr.org
