All 550 of VOA’s contract status reporters, editors, videographers, engineers and techs just notified they’re terminated effective end of this month. We don’t distinguish internally between them and regular staff β€” all are highly skilled and absolutely critical to the operation.

@w7voa Such vandalism by your current administration. I hope the USA will ever manage to recover from this.

@w7voa

This can only mean they are shutting VOA down completely? 😬

@w7voa It’s shocking and such a trauma for so many families. I hope they are in other countries, or can move to other countries where they can find work and be safe/safer as the USA abandons its former allies and associates.

@w7voa This is all so chilling in so many ways.

@w7voa

I first heard VOA on shortwave as a pre-teen in the 1950s. Still an invaluable source. What an utter farce Trump is.

@w7voa very sad to see this.

Is it possible, or even legal, for the affected employees to form their own independent media network?
