April 4, 2007 -- Oklahoma's extreme right-wing Republican Senator Tom Coburn is on a Joseph McCarthy-like crusade against the Voice of America -- or what remains of it after draconian budget cuts, foreign language program cancellations, and neo-con editorializing. According to VOA sources, Coburn is on a personal vendetta against some long-serving VOA broadcasters. Coburn is accusing some of having links to Hezbollah, the government of Iran, and other bogeymen of convenience. Radio Farda, a joint operation of the VOA and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, has been dubbed by Coburn and his staff of neo-cons as "Radio Khatami," a reference to the previous moderate President of Iran, and of airing wire reports from the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA). The VOA's Persian language service has also come in for intense criticism from Coburn.

A VOA official, speaking on conditions of anonymity, said Coburn's vendetta against the VOA was obsessive and mean-spirited.
