"The voice of America is the nation's largest publicly funded broadcasting network, reaching more than 90 million people worldwide in over fifty languages. Since it first went on the air as a regional wartime enterprise in February 1942, VOA has undergone a spectacular transformation, and it now employs scores of reporters worldwide and broadcasts around the clock every day of every year, reaching listeners in the four-fifths of the world still denied a completely free press. Alan L. Heil, Jr., former deputy director of VOA, chronicles this remarkable transformation from a fledgling shortwave propaganda organ during World War II to a global multimedia giant encompassing radio, the internet, and 1,500 affiliated radio and television stations across the globe."--Jacket.
