Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:13:31 All 550 of VOAβs contract status reporters, editors, videographers, engineers and techs just notified theyβre terminated effective end of this month. We donβt distinguish internally between them and regular staff β all are highly skilled and absolutely critical to the operation. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:18:31 @w7voa Such vandalism by your current administration. I hope the USA will ever manage to recover from this. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:19:49 This can only mean they are shutting VOA down completely? π¬ |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:19:51 @w7voa Itβs 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. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:20:13 @w7voa This is all so chilling in so many ways. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:20:47 I first heard VOA on shortwave as a pre-teen in the 1950s. Still an invaluable source. What an utter farce Trump is. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:24:16 @w7voa very sad to see this. |
Föderation EN Mo 17.03.2025 00:28:34 Is it possible, or even legal, for the affected employees to form their own independent media network? |
