Alabama Public Television, also known as APT, is a state-owned company headquartered in the US. Founded in 1955, it operates with approximately 70 employees and reported $44.3M in revenue as of 2023. As a tier 2 media tech buyer, the company specializes in broadcast television and radio. Functioning as a state network of PBS member television stations, it serves the U.S. state of Alabama.
On February 19, 2026, Alabama Public Television announced it would bring free hands-on learning workshops for educators, students, childcare workers, parents, and caregivers to the H. Grady Bradshaw Library in Chambers County on March 23. These workshops promote resources available through PBS and Alabama Public Television websites to support children's learning and engagement. This initiative follows reports from January 2026 that Alabama Public Television leaders experienced increased donations after choosing to maintain its affiliation with PBS, a situation contrasted by WLRH, a Huntsville radio station, which saw a dramatic loss of financial support after dropping National Public Radio (NPR). Earlier in January 2026, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) announced its dissolution after Congress rescinded all federal funding, creating uncertainty for local educational television, including Alabama Public Television, the nation's oldest educational television network. Previously, on November 19, 2025, Alabama Public Television commissioners voted to uphold their partnership with PBS, ensuring the continued broadcast of popular programs like *Sesame Street* and *Nova*. The motion to pay PBS and honor the contract was filed by Huntsville's Alabama Educational Television Commissioner, Bebe Williams.
