Richard Grenell's proposal to close the Voice of America and Radio Free Europe, two state-funded American media outlets, one with a full 82 years of history and hundreds of branches around the world, has also been supported by Elon Musk.
The billionaire, now with a role in Donald Trump's administration, has repeated Grenell's call, even being even more radical, he demands that these two media outlets be completely shut down.
"Yes, close them."
1. Europe is free now (not counting the stifling bureaucracy). hello??
2. Nobody listens to them anymore.
3. They are just crazy radical leftists talking to themselves while burning $1 billion a year of American taxpayer money,” Musk declared.
Yes, shut them down.
