A federal judge has dealt a blow to Kari Lake’s shakeup of Voice of America (VOA).
District Court Judge Royce Lamberth, an appointee of former President Ronald Reagan, ruled Thursday that Lake cannot oust VOA Director Michael Abramowitz without the approval of the International Broadcasting Advisory Board—a bipartisan panel that President Donald Trump nuked in January.
Earlier this month, Lake fired Abramowitz when he refused to accept a reassignment as chief management officer of a transmitting station in North Carolina, arguing that she needed approval from the now-defunct advisory board.
