Taipei, Taiwan – The Chinese government media and suspenders of religion welcomed us Overing Voice of America (VOA) and Frey Asia (RFA) radio (RFA) In the wake of the recent budget discounts by the administration of US President Donald Trump.

“The so -called freedom lighthouse, VOA, has now been ignored by its government like a dirty rag,” said the Global Times, which is famous for her national comments, in an opening article during the weekend after Trump’s outbreak of Losov news.

The daily newspapers are described as a “carefully designed advertising machine”, whose “basic function is to serve Washington’s need to attack other countries based on ideological demands.”

The former Editor -in -chief of Global Times was echoed by Xijin, who described the dismantling of the ports as “really fun” in a post on Microblogging Weibo.

Nuri Vitci, the author of Hong Kong, welcomed his headquarters and who wrote to the outlets of the state, including China Daily, the demise of “American advertising agents”.

“These groups issue” news “in 62 languages ​​to influence the minds of 350 million people all over the world to take a pro-Americans-and poison people’s minds against Chinese, Russians, Iranians and other people, Washington, seeing competitors or” opponents “, on the responsibility of X.

While refusing to comment directly on the Trump administration’s local policies, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning described on Tuesday as a “lying factory that raises conflict” with a “busy record in covering China”.

Voa and RFA were a thorn on the side of the Chinese Communist Party for decades, broadcasting the news and comments that challenged Beijing’s position on sensitive topics such as Taiwan and the UigHur Ethnic Minority.

China was one of the first targeted Voa fans when it was established in the middle of World War II, according to the US Mother Agency for World Media (USAGM).

Over the decades, the port expanded its coverage to 49 languages, in the end demanding a world audience of 361 million people.

The smaller RFA, founded in 1996, relied on a network of communications on the ground all over Asia to shed light on the limited areas of most Western journalists, including Chinese Tibetan and Chinjiang.

“Both RFA and VOA do something that no one else does, which reaches the masses inside China through non -internet means,” Bethani Allen, head of the Australian Institute of Investigations and Analyzes at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, told Al Jazerara.

“The TV broadcasts and RFA radio arrive at people who will not be able to access independent information,” Allen added.

RFA is born in international newspapers in 2017 when its service in Uighur became the first news port of UigHur Muslims on a large scale in the so -called “vocational education and training centers” in Xinjiang.

Subsequent reports on UIGURS transaction by Buzzfeed News and Business Insider awarded Pulitzer Award in 2021 and 2022.

David Bandsky, director of the China project for the media in Taiwan, told Al -Jazeera that RFA was also “exceptional” in “covering the stories that are unfolded on the ground in China and that have not been covered.”

Voa said “very influencing its history.”

He said: “I have met many Chinese journalists and editors over the past twenty years who remembered the listening to Voa on their short waves in the 1980s … It was a liberation force.”

On Friday, Trump signed an executive order calling for the elimination of USAGM “to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law.”

As of Saturday, about 1,300 Voa employees, which is nearly a working power, was placed on vacation.

Trump’s charges of USAAGM, whose budget for 2024 amounted to $ 886.7 million, is speaking the potential party from Europe Radio/Radio Radio – which was established during World War II to confront Nazi propaganda – the Middle East broadcast and the Open Technology Fund.

Trump and his allies have long had caught against VOA and other public -funded American media, accusing them of liberal bias and excessive sympathetic coverage from the opponents of the United States.

While Trump’s order was widely convicted by the prevailing press organizations and journalists, Voa and sister networks have also received criticism of its press standards.

In 2013, former Voa journalist Gary Thomas wrote in the review of the press in Colombia that “the incorrectly correct secret” in the port was “an inconsistent journalist for language services.”

“Some have a wealth of press experience,” Thomas wrote.

“The contrast is explained by the simple fact of finding people who are good at a certain language, and they also have experience in the type of strict press that Voa is traditionally required.”

On Monday, Triss Wayne Liu, a former VOA journalist in the United States, said in a post on X that some Chinese correspondents “capable and aspiration” of the network have raised internal concerns about “lack of professionalism” in the newsroom only to find themselves from promoting.

Liu said: “The leadership of both Chinese departments in America and Radio Free Asia lacks the neutrality that they must have, and they fail to appoint people on the basis of merit.
