Speaking out to @savevoanow — so shocked that this is happening to a vital element of US public diplomacy.
The silencing of VOA is “un-American and outrageous”, says Nicolas Cull, historian, pioneer scholar and educator in the field of public diplomacy. He also warns about the dangers posed by VOA not communicating American ideals of press freedom around the world. #SaveVOA @NickCull

So glad that the great music scholar Joe Horowitz and #UniversityofMichigan can conduct #culturaldiplomacy in South Africa. So sad that the State Department's version of this work is headed for a 93% budget cut.

A sad day for @VOANews. We wouldn’t sit by if the marines or the carriers were treated this way. Imagine #WorldPressFreedomDay with the U.S. government treating its own this way.
Today I was notified that I’m being fired from my job as a press freedom reporter at Voice of America.

Big news from @UnderSecPD Liz Allen: moving on to a campaign job. Good to see the just praise for her #publicdiplomacy work in the Times peace. Hope her important emphasis on working with allies in PD survives her departure.
