Dr. Kim Andrew Elliott, in his splendid and must-read blog, fails to mention (so far as I can tell) items posted about the Broadcasting Board of Governors by BBG Watch, critical reports about USG International Broadcasting which I, personally, sometimes disagree with, despite their passionate and humane analyses. But such critical comments must be heard for the good of the Republic.
I hope that, even if such no-news-exclusion is in fact not the case in his exceptional blog, the admirable Dr. Elliott, who prizes journalistic objectivity and a firewall between "news" and "advocacy" (advocacy -- public diplomacy as he sees it), it (his blog) will continue to be true to his intelligence rather than to his getting a USG check to post (or more accurately said, not post) pertinent matters as regards US International Broadcasting.
