An unnamed meebmr of the Broadcasting Board of Governors has called out contributors to this website as cowards, which at first look is correct, and I have thought the same of myself since my last post.I wish I were as brave as | was in my youth, when I came to RFE/RL. Then I, and my colleagues left our respective homelands to stand up to terror and totalitarianism. Now I find myself unwilling to speak out against what I perceive as mismanagement and misinformation occurring at the a place whose stated mission of providing responsible discussion and open debate.I do not feel that I can speak my mind without reprisal. I feel that I am once again living under totalitarian rule, I fear that there will soon be informers reporting back to our senior managers, and the blackbird will start coming to people's desks and escorting them out of the building to the gulag of unemployment.Unfortunately for me, I have much more to lose these days, and I choose to keep my head down, only writing on this site in the hopes that my posts will be read and those in charge will remeebmr the reason we are here and refocus on doing what is best for the Radio, and not just just what is good for themselves. So yes, to my mind I am a coward, and I sometimes feel ashamed.As for the unamed Governor's word, for him to call me, and other contributors to this site cowards is an outrage.I invite him/her to come to Prague and call me and my colleagues cowards to our faces. Explain to us how we are the cowards. We, who have left our homelands, sometimes with no hope of returning. We, who have left our famililes in peril. We, who have risked our lives all for the one goal of reporting the truth about what is happening.Better yet, why not tell the family of slain VOA journalist Mukarram Khan Atif, who made the ultimate sacrifice in supporting the mission of U.S. International Broadcasting.Or maybe he/she can apologize, read whatever grievances we collectively may have, work to fix those the Board can, and explain the reasons why others cannot be fixed. This would be significanlty more productive than insulting us.
