Walter Isaacson takes over Broadcasting …

Walter Isaacson takes over Broadcasting Board of Governors for the US Government. Did you know we had such a thing? The former Time Magazine Managing Editor and CEO of CNN will be leading the board that oversees the US Government’s broadcasting properties – most well known are Voice of America and Radio Free Europe. If the Obama administration did want to set up a “Radio Czar” board to operate bailed out “failed” radio businesses after they go bankrupt for not paying their toxic bank loans, this would be a logical place to do that.

    Yes. Specifically, I know they’re banned from targeting their programming to residents of the United States. Hence why VOA isn’t a major noncommercial network on the level of, say, NPR.

      An administration that can fire the President of GM and take over Bank of America will have no trouble changing that rule.
