MAGA information community to take over venerable government-funded outlet

Senior presidential adviser Kari Lake

Nevertheless, OAN is something however credible. The community, based in 2013, has been dropped by practically each main cable and satellite tv for pc supplier and was a significant promoter of Trump’s false claims in regards to the 2020 election—lies that led to a number of defamation lawsuits, together with one from the voting know-how firm Smartmatic, which OAN quietly settled in 2024. And one of many community’s present hosts is former Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, who resigned in shame after allegations of drug use and intercourse with minors.

Whereas Trump’s allies increase hyperpartisan retailers, they’re additionally punishing fact-based media retailers. His administration is working to dam the Related Press from overlaying presidential occasions, all whereas reserving briefing room seats for far-right, fringe-friendly allies.

It’s additionally unclear how this OAN deal squares with Trump’s ongoing authorized battles. He’s preventing to uphold a March govt order dismantling USAGM, issued after he accused VOA of bias. That order led to over 1,000 VOA staffers being positioned on depart, the termination of 600 contractors, and the suspension of broadcasting for the primary time within the company’s 83-year historical past.

U.S. District Choose Royce Lamberth blocked the order on April 22, which might have allowed extra workers to return. However a federal appeals courtroom—stacked with two Trump appointees—partially stayed the ruling, halting the return of workers whereas nonetheless requiring VOA to meet its authorized mandate. Lake seems prepared to make use of OAN’s content material to satisfy that mandate, with out rebuilding the community because it was. Trump hasn’t commented publicly on Lake’s plan.

Fears of a right-wing reboot of VOA are widespread.

“VOA is not to be the voice of left America nor the voice of right America,” Steve Herman, chief nationwide correspondent for VOA, advised The Washington Publish. “USAGM cannot dictate [that] VOA run OAN content. It would be a violation of our fire wall and our charter, which are laws.”

Lake, a twice-failed MAGA candidate for workplace in Arizona, is a former TV anchor who’s spent years echoing Trump’s lies about election fraud—claims she’s made about her personal losses too.

What’s unfolding at Voice of America isn’t only a bureaucratic shakeup—it’s a warning shot. A community initially created to struggle propaganda overseas is now liable to changing into a government-run amplifier of it at residence.
