Arkansas PBS, also known as AR PBS, is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US. Founded in 1966, the network employs approximately 70 individuals and reported $45.0M in revenue as of 2023. It functions as a tier 2 media tech buyer. The company specializes in operating Arkansas’s only statewide public media network, which delivers daily productions and programs primarily through broadcast television and radio.
Arkansas PBS fans are within $272,000 of their funding goal to preserve programming. This public fundraising effort follows the Arkansas Legislature's decision on April 30, when it adjourned its fiscal session after rejecting an effort to provide state matching funds for donations to the public television network. Earlier, on April 29, a bill aimed at funding PBS membership for Arkansas TV failed in the House on the final day of the legislature's fiscal session after two attempts. These rejections included the defeat of three attempts on April 28 to pass a $550,000 allocation in matching funds intended to support PBS programming. Previously, on April 27, the network's main budget bill received final House approval and advanced to Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders' desk, though the fate of state funding to match donations for PBS programs remained uncertain at that time.
