Ladies and Gentlemen, Russia state TV, I mean Voice of America

Setting aside the fact that this is not actually a position subject to a presidential appointment, VoA is a state broadcast entity with a state broadcasting purpose. Given that, I'm not entirely sure why the entity's leadership and content should not be consistent with the views of the elected chief executive. And especially so given the wide availability of private information content.

Kari Lake is a complete loser though.

Also, out of curiosity - show of hands: how many of you have ever listened to VoA?

Why do you have to make things so complicated? This starts and ends with Kari Lake. A liar and repeat election denier leading an agency intended to promote truth and democracy around the world.

I put her in the middle

Easy enough to dump on her but not exactly how the thread originally started

To be honest about it, voa is actually americas propaganda channel. Which I have no problem with.

Propaganda is an overstatement It’s generally fair and unvarnished. It has a published mission statement. That so few Americans know about it tells us it’s neutral, and does its job of getting news to the world.
Letting a nut like Lake be in charge will do damage that will take years to unscrew.

It helps him to feel better by building a construct for his principled choice in November.
Also, he’s a lawyer. He gets paid by the word.

As I noted a month or so ago I abstained from the presidential election.

But there is a certain irony to people bemoaning both “lots” of words and then brief binary electoral communications. It’s a message board
 
And now it will be Trump’s propaganda channel. Any issue with that?
Well we’ll see. While the line may be a fine one, I suspect that concerns of “l’etat-c’est moi” are somewhat overblown.

I’m more concerned that lake is just a dolt. But like fetterman, not going off the deep end since voa director isn’t even a presidentially appointed position
