  • A judge blocked Trump's attempt to shut down Voice of America.

In an article by Sara Dorn published on Forbes on May 2, 2025, former President Donald Trump's ongoing conflict with the media is highlighted, focusing on his recent efforts to defund public broadcasting services PBS and NPR. Trump's proposal aims to eliminate federal funding for these outlets, arguing that they exhibit a liberal bias and misuse taxpayer money. The article discusses the potential impact of such a move on public broadcasting, noting that while PBS and NPR receive only a small portion of their funding from the federal government, the loss could still significantly affect their operations. Additionally, the piece explores the broader context of Trump's media strategy, including his history of labeling critical media as "fake news" and his attempts to undermine press freedom. The article also touches on the reactions from supporters and critics of the defunding proposal, with some seeing it as an attack on free speech and others viewing it as a necessary step to curb perceived media bias.
