Hey, finally something I can agree with Nanny Huckabee on, although its too bad that he wants funding cut because of this incident—he should want funding cut because government shouldn’t be in the business of running a radio and TV network.
How about Radio Free Europe?
Initially, both RFE and RL were funded principally by the U.S. Congress through the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), but RFE also received supplemental private donations.
In 1971, all CIA involvement ended and thereafter RFE and RL were funded by Congressional appropriation through the Board for International Broadcasting (BIB) and after 1995 the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG). The two corporations were merged into RFE/RL, Inc. in 1976.
