Lamar University's video services, [[Lamar University#LUTV|LUTV]] and [[Lamar University#LUTV Channel 7|LUTV Channel 7]], (respectively) provide [[C-SPAN]]-like coverage on local government proceedings and original programming from students. Neither channel has an over the air channel and are available only on cable TV.

The region currently has no [[Public Broadcasting Service|PBS]] member station of its own; [[KUHT]] on channel 8 (licensed to Houston, which is carried on cable and satellite providers in most of the market) and KLTL on channel 20 (a [[Louisiana Public Broadcasting]] affiliate licensed to Lake Charles, which is carried on cable providers in the market's extreme eastern portions) do not reach the area. KUHT has a construction permit for a digital translator on RF 24, which would share KFDM's antenna on 25, but the University of Houston has had financial cutbacks and recently cancelled a translator application in Victoria. What outcome this will have on the Beaumont facility remains to be seen.

=== Radio ===

Radio stations that were licensed in the [[Greater Houston]] area (mainly the [[Senior Road Tower]]) are barely perceptible in most of the Beaumont area.
