Hey KQED, if everyone can truly see D TOUR on KTEH who also has KQED then fine. Although a friend of mine who lives in Lake County has KQED, but apparently not KTEH. She's not going to get to see it. I understand that these things are going to happen. But, really the fact of the matter is that KQED IS the primary s...tation for the Bay Area. The outreach here is far more than the other flagship stations. And this particular episode of Independent Lens, which is D TOUR, is a story about Bay Area people told by Bay Area artists. Wouldn't it be nice if KQED can find some time to schedule this for folks who expect this kind of programming from KQED?Read More

Cosby went to my high school in Philadelphia. A loyal alum who often references Central High and sings the school song during appearances. Terrific guy.

Sharpening Markers

Sharpening Markers I wanted to see the D-Tour, Are you going to Reschedule it? It's a really important story about real life struggles that everyone should see. Please consider airing the program.

Joe Daley

Joe Daley What’s the big idea not showing D Tour next Tuesday? You can show Charlie Rose any old time! You’ve got a lot of nerve KQED!

Paul Anderson

Paul Anderson I just heard about D TOUR not being shown on KQED?? This is a doc about the local community and I believe that when a publically funded station is programming a national program over a local focus, something is wrong. Please reconsider showing the Independent Lens featuring D TOUR. This is an important film!

Hi Paul, Jim, Joe, and Sharpening Makers, thanks for your comments! We appreciate your avid interest in Independent Lens, and we're proud to be able to showcase this particular episode on KTEH at the national carriage time. KTEH is one of our two flagship stations. Everyone who can see KQED can also see KTEH. D TOUR happens to be a 90 minute ... Read Moreprogram instead of the usual 60 minute Independent Lens program, so we are unable to preempt our regular programming on KQED. Anyone looking on the website for this program will be able to find the listings and correct channel for this program in our area. Please encourage your friends to watch the show on KTEH 54, Comcast 10, or digitally on 9.2, 54.1, and 25.2. Best, KQED

Jim Granato Hey KQED! Please consider re-scheduling Independent Lens D TOUR to another time for Bay Area folks to watch! I realize Charlie Rose is an important program, but there are tons of people expecting to tune into KQED and watch this incredible story about Bay Area folks tackle on issues such as health insurance, organ donation and fulfilling one's dreams. http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/d-tour/
