Über diesen Titel
In this episode, Jeff Gedmin, the president/CEO of the Middle East Broadcasting Networks (MBN), expresses disappointment and concern regarding the termination of their grant agreement by Kari Lake, a senior advisor at the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM). Despite congressional approval of their funding and MBN's work in countering anti-American narratives in the Middle East, Lake deemed the organization no longer worthy of support. Jeff highlighted MBN's cost-saving measures and its crucial role as the only U.S.-funded Arabic language news network, emphasizing that ceasing operations would be a disservice to American taxpayers and a victory for America's adversaries. He announced a town hall to discuss the future and affirmed their commitment to fighting for MBN's continuation.
