Nominations for Broadcasting Board of Governors

(6/26) President George Bush (R) has nominated Peter Robert Kann, of New Jersey, to be a Member of the Broadcasting Board of Governors for a term expiring August 13, 2010 (vice James K. Glassman, resigned) and Michael Meehan, of Virginia, for a term expiring August 13, 2010 (vice D. Jeffrey Hirschberg, term expired). On January 9, 2007, President Bush had renominated Jeffrey Hirschberg, but that nomination has been withdrawn. The Broadcasting Board of Governors is an independent federal agency which supervises all US government-supported, non-military international broadcasting, including the Voice of America (VOA); Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL); the Middle East Broadcasting Networks (Alhurra TV and Radio Sawa); Radio Free Asia (RFA); and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (Radio and TV Martí).
