DTV – Public TV Stations

QUICK FACTS

The FCC recently adapted its rules governing public stations to the digital

environment. Public broadcasters now have flexibility to enhance their ability to raise

revenue to support their educational programming mission. Public TV's primary

responsibility is to provide noncommercial, nonprofit, educational broadcast service.

Public TV stations are still prohibited from airing advertisements or commercials during

their free broadcasting services, and they are still allowed to acknowledge

contributions or underwriting donations from for-profit organizations with

announcements describing those organizations.
