I’ve heard the President talk about wanting a change of leadership at VOA but there was a hold up.

I’ve never listened to VOA but if Senator Bob Menendez from N.J. is against it then this has to be a good thing.

A little about Senator Menendez if anyone is interested;

Sounds like the new head may be shaking things up a bit, something that has been needed for a long time.

...do NPR next!

(Or even better, defund NPR and let them be a left wing mouthpiece without my money.)

PBS too.  Regardless of the politics, there's no reason for the government to be in the broadcasting business these days, especially since there's unlimited content available elsewhere.

Don't forget how Al Gore got his own channel which I think was called Current?  (yeah like that is possible without payola) and then turned around sold it to Al Jezeera   WTF AL?

He made at least 70 million, one account had his gain at 400 million by the time it was done.

You can not get more patriotic that selling bandwidth to Al Jezeera can you?

Look it up it happened but the Dems media never covers it
