  • TAB Public Service Ascertainment for 2024

    Each year, TAB documents the value of Texas broadcasters’ public service to local communities to assist in our advocacy before policymakers in Austin and Washington, DC.

    The information you provide is instrumental to this effort.

    Before you begin, note that

    1. NEW:  You can now input information for up to six stations on this single, streamlined form. The first question lets us know how many stations you are reporting, and the system will then request information for only the number of stations you are reporting.
    2. Responses should include the entire 2024 year, including December activities. They should include all of your public service activities, including your PEP participation.
    3. Deadline: January 10.

    Your privacy is important to TAB. No individual station or group information will be released except as noted in the last step.

    Questions? Contact TAB's Barbara Rodgers or call 512-322-9944.

  • Step 4: Greatest Impact

  • TAB is always looking for stories of broadcasters’ success in serving their communities.

    If you have a story about how your station or cluster impacted your community during an emergency or for on-going areas of need, please share your story in the space below.

  • Please attach a PDF, photos, audio/video clips, or link to content on your website to illustrate your success using the "Upload" links.

    Note that this example may be highlighted in our report to lawmakers, unlike the data requested above which will only be presented in aggregate form on behalf of all Texas stations.
