  The Voice of America (VOA) is the oldest and largest US government-funded international media organization. In 2020, Donald Trump nominated Michael Pack, a right-wing documentarian and close friend of Steve Bannon, to lead the US Agency for Global Media—the independent federal agency overseeing US-funded international media. During Pack's seven month tenure, more than thirty whistleblowers filed complaints against him, and a judge ruled that he had infringed journalists' constitutional right to freedom of speech. 
   
   
   
  How did such a major international public service media network become intensely politicized by government allies in such a short time, despite having its editorial independence protected by law? 
   
   
   
  Capturing News, Capturing Democracy puts these events in historical and international context—and develops a new analytical framework for understanding government capture and its connection to broader processes of democratic backsliding. Drawing from in-depth interviews with network managers and journalists, and analysis of private correspondence and internal documents, Kate Wright, Martin Scott, and Mel Bunce analyze how political appointees, White House officials, and right-wing media influenced VOA—changing its reporting of the Black Lives Matter movement, and the 2020 presidential election.

  The Battle of Britain - How the...

   The Battle of Britain was not an isolated event. It was the culmination of a series of escalating tensions, military buildups, and ideological confrontations that had been brewing for years. By 1939, Europe was on the brink of war. The world watched as Adolf Hitler's ambitions for territorial expansion grew, and the Nazi regime began implementing its aggressive policies across Europe. 
    
  The rise of Nazi Germany under Hitler was a response to the humiliation the country had suffered after World War I. With the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, Germany was burdened with harsh reparations, which led to economic instability and social unrest. In this environment, Hitler’s National Socialist party capitalized on the public’s desire for national renewal. He began rearming Germany in the early 1930s, violating the treaty’s restrictions and asserting military strength across Europe. 
    
  By the mid-1930s, Britain and France found themselves at odds with Germany’s expanding influence. In 1938, Hitler annexed Austria and then demanded control over Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland. When the Munich Agreement failed to halt his expansionist ambitions, Britain began to realize that appeasement would not work. The threat of war was no longer theoretical; it was imminent.
