PRAGUE. - Recent inexplicable resignation of American media executive Andrew Lack sworn as recently as January 20 by Jeffrey Shell, Chairman of U.S. Federal agency Broadcasting Board of Governors entrusted with American international broadcasting, to a position of BBG’s director and CEO, was covered in the United States not only by the major mainstream media, but also by private bloggers, some using four-letter words to characterize Mr. Lack’s morals and demanding resignation of Jeffrey Shell himself. However, in BBG’s target countries at the territory of the former Soviet Union the “Lack case” is not noticed. Why? Is BBG, the non-entity, fit to spearhead American efforts to counteract aggressive Kremlin’s propaganda at the time of Ukrainian crisis?
