Surely the $50 million requested for these operations this year are needed also to help resolve some of our many domestic problems. The socalled "freedom radios" began in the early 1950s during a period of ideological confrontation between the East and West. Radio Liberty focused upon the Soviet Union. while Radio Free Europe focused upon its Eastern European satellites. Each presented itself as a spontaneous creation. run by freedomloving refugees and. presumably. financed by the dimes and nickels from school children. However. both were in reality organizational and functional instruments of the CIA. Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty have modified their goals and no longer espouse the concept of revolt against communism as it did originally.
