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.
America’s Public Television Stations (APTS) filed comments with the FCC on March 27, describing public television's role in providing local high school and college sports coverage over the air, stating this fulfills a public interest mission distinct from professional sports rights debates. Previously, on February 19, Alabama Public Television brought free hands-on learning workshops for educators, education students, childcare workers, parents, and caregivers to the H. Grady Bradshaw Library in Chambers County, promoting resources available through PBS and Alabama Public Television websites. Earlier, on January 21, Alabama Public Television leaders reported an increase in donations after the station chose to continue its affiliation with PBS, contrasting with WLRH, a Huntsville radio station, which experienced a significant loss of financial support after dropping National Public Radio (NPR). This development followed news from January 7 that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) was dissolving after Congress rescinded all of its federal funding, raising questions about the exact impact on Alabama Public Television, which is identified as the nation’s oldest educational television network.
