PRAGUE - The head of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty said on April 3 that the US government had switched off a satellite that transmitted its Russian-language programme into Russia.
Prague-based RFE/RL, founded during the Cold War to counter Soviet propaganda and funded by the US, has been at odds with the new administration of US President Donald Trump, which decided in mid-March to freeze its funding, amid a drive to slash the size of the federal government.
RFE/RL challenged the decision in court and won a temporary restraining order, but the US Agency for Global Media, the US government agency that oversees its operations, has not yet released the funding.
“We came into work today and saw that satellite services that reach into Russia had been turned off by USAGM,” RFE/RL chief executive officer Stephen Capus told AFP.
A reminder that Radio Free Anything is literally CIA propaganda.
Still (was, before Trump) the lesser evil to Putin…
You people really like your lesser evils don’t ya?
How is “not choosing the lesser evil” is paying off for Gaza, trans people, etc.?
One day I swear I will find one of you coward and offer him to cut his left ball or just punch him the face for hours. See how you like fake dichotomies.
“See you didnt pay the protection money and now we have to set your shop afire. How did not choosing the lesser evil turned out for you”. Piece of shit

B&
It is a US / neoliberal propaganda. I don’t think there’s anything CIA specific to that propaganda.
Ah yes they just created it and then you know they’re well known for just letting people do what they want AHAHAHAHAH
What’s CIA specific about the content broadcasted on this radio?
“CIA SpecIFiC” what does that even mean? Shut the fuck up
I think people throw CIA term because it sounds cool but what do you really mean by that?
Radio Free Asia was created by the CIA. If you think they let it operate independently now, you’re just either naive or dishonest.
I think we’ve already established that this is not in question. I’m asking what content is created by CIA and how does it manifest.
