Trump takes over VOA?
Trump moves to put his own stamp on Voice of America
The president dispatches two aides to the broadcasting agency that came under fire over the weekend for its Trump coverage.


The arrival of the two aides – both political operatives from Trump’s campaign – comes after Voice of America received blowback over the weekend for sending out a series of tweets about White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s claims about inauguration crowd size that looked to some like an endorsement of his false statements. The news outlet later deleted one of the tweets.

It will be interesting to see how it changes.

Considering it is the foreign "information" wing of whatever administration is in power, that makes sense.
