All of VOA’s English language blogs are now conveniently listed on one webpage, including The Sonny Side of Sports, African Music Treasures, Russia Watch, and Digital Frontiers, our dynamic online discussion of privacy, identity and freedom in the digital age.
Staying in touch with the latest U.S. and international developments is easy with VOA Breaking News, a survey of the top stories from each region with full access to news and analysis by VOA journalists around the world.
VOA Director Danforth W. Austin says, “The new blog network has already generated significant audience gains because it’s easy to find original VOA content written for the web. Each blog is like a story beat, and all forms of media are pulled into one central place.” Austin says, “It also offers our audience an easy way to have a dialogue with our reporters on social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.”
