Corporation for Public Broadcasting
Updated: Wikipedia source
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB; stylized in all lowercase as cpb) is an American non-profit corporation created under the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 to promote and help support public broadcasting in the United States. The corporation's mission was to ensure universal access to non-commercial, high-quality educational, cultural, and other content and telecommunications services. CPB received annual funding from Congress from 1967. As of 2015, it had distributed more than 70 percent of its funding to more than 1,500 locally owned public radio and television stations, including PBS and NPR stations. In particular, CPB funding was a key part of small and rural public media station budgets. The CPB is set to dissolve after January 2026 following a new law of the U.S. federal government in July 2025 which halted all funding to the CPB.
