VisitTrump Appoints Election Denier Kari Lake to Head Voice of America
Dec 12, 2024, 07:35 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has announced his intention to appoint Kari Lake, a former Arizona gubernatorial candidate known for her election denialism and hard-line stance on immigration, as the new director of Voice of America (VOA). VOA, a government-funded international media organization with a mission to promote democracy and truth, has been historically nonpartisan and editorially independent. Trump's decision has sparked concerns among VOA employees and critics, who fear that Lake's appointment could transform the network into a platform for Trump's political messaging. Lake, known for her adversarial stance towards the media, has pledged to promote American values of freedom and liberty through VOA, contrasting what Trump refers to as 'the lies spread by the Fake News Media.' VOA, established in 1942, reaches an estimated 354 million people weekly across the globe.
