Mike Abramowitz
Mike Abramowitz is the director of the Voice of America (VOA), a position he has held since 2019. With a background in journalism and public service, Abramowitz has been a staunch advocate for the VOA's mission to provide accurate and unbiased news to global audiences. He has previously worked with the National Endowment for Democracy and has extensive experience in international broadcasting. Under his leadership, the VOA has faced significant challenges, including recent executive orders aimed at dismantling its operations, which Abramowitz argues are crucial for countering misinformation from adversarial nations.
