Setting the Record Straight on Voice of America
It's Round Three of the Voice of America Persian News Network vs. human rights activists representing minority groups in Iran. Ali Ghaderi and Karim Abdian complain that VOA deliberately marginalizes minorities, refusing to air the views of the non-Persian minorities that are subjected to the Islamic Republic's harsh treatment and the policy of ethnic cleansing.

Ali Ghaderi and Karim Abdian contend that US government-funded Voice of America Persia and Radio Farda are ultimately damaging to American interests.
