Edward R. Murrow Transmitting Station in North Carolina
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor Dennis Dura who shares this post from Kim Andrew Elliott regarding the importance of continued congressional funding for the Voice of America (VOA). He argues that U.S. international broadcasting is still a vital form of soft power—delivering credible news where press freedom is limited—and warns that cutting funding would weaken a key source of trusted global journalism when it’s needed most.
Well said!!
I agree with “Cousin” Kim. Shortwave can get through often when other media cannot.
To rely on the internet and local broadcasting is short-sighted.
Cheers, Jock
