The government-run news network Voice of America (VOA) has long been criticized for its liberal bias and pro-Iran leanings. Former Arizona news anchor Kari Lake, who has been tapped by President Donald Trump to run VOA, has accused the network of being pro-Hamas and refusing to call terrorists by their name. VOA's liberal staffers have also been accused of publishing Russian propagandists. Trump's executive order to dismantle VOA is effectively a death warrant for the organization, although he cannot unilaterally eliminate it. VOA has faced multiple congressional probes into its biases and corruption, particularly in its Persian-language affiliate.
