"The Voice of America plans to eliminate seven radio language services this year, reflecting the Bush administration's emphasis on outreach to the Muslim world. Among the cuts are the radio and TV broadcasts of the Russian service, along with radio broadcasts in Ukrainian, Serbian, Hindi, Macedonian, Bosnian and Georgian. ... Tish King, a spokeswoman for Voice of America, said ... Congress is on board with the cuts, which will be effective in September. Matthew Dennis, a spokesman for Rep. Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.), chairwoman of the appropriations subcommittee that oversees funding for the BBG, cautioned that the appropriations process for VOA funds hasn't been finalized." ProPublica, 9 July 2008. The mentioned VOA services, except Georgian, will continue with internet and/or television. Some VOA services previously slated for elimination or reduction are spared. I will post a complete and specific list as soon as I have it. See previous post about same subject.
