Widakuswara v. Lake

Kari Lake’s decision to publish White House handout material without providing context or balance brings VOA a step closer towards becoming nothing but the administration’s mouthpiece. It is a betrayal of our legally mandated editorial independence and an insult to the journalistic integrity of those of us who covered U.S. administrations since our inception in 1942.
