Background
KCET-TV Channel 28 is an educational independent television station located in Los Angeles, California. KCET first signed

When the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) was established in 1970, KCET became a charter member. The station was Southern
California's flagship PBS member station until December 31, 2010, when it ended its partnership with PBS after 40 years to
become the nation's largest independent public television station. Until moving to new offices in Burbank in 2012, KCET broadcast
from its studios in Hollywood. In addition to its signature news program "Life and Times," KCET produced Huell Howser's "Cailfornia
