THE DUBAI PORTS CONTROVERSY: AN UPROAR HEARD ROUND THE WORLD
MAR 22, 2006
By Jade Miller
Dubai-based Dubai Ports World (DP World) announced its takeover of P & O, a British shipping and logistics company on February 13 to little fanfare. Coverage of the $3.7 billion deal was restricted mainly to the business section of international news sources, if it was covered at all. Almost none of these outlets made mention of the transfer of management of six U.S. ports from P&O to DP World included in the deal. Only when Senator Charles Schumer spearheaded a high-profile campaign against the deal, did wide spread objections begin to surface.
THE FUTURE OF AMERICA’S GLOBAL VOICE: THE DEBATE SURROUNDING THE NEW VOA BUDGET
MAR 16, 2006
By Amelia H. Arsenault
On February 6, 2006, a Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) press release made clear that the proposed 2007 budget will result in dramatic changes at the Voice of America (VOA). In particular, the budget will mean the elimination of VOA’s main English transmission, VOA News Now Radio while retaining funding for VOA English to Africa, Special English, and VOA's English website. Other language broadcasts set for elimination include: all VOA television and radio broadcasts in Croatian, Turkish, Thai, Greek and Georgian; and VOA radio broadcasts in Albanian, Bosnian, Macedonian, Serbian, Russian and Hindi. These changes, particularly the demise of VOA English, have instigated a flurry of speculation about the direction of American international broadcasting and the future of all VOA programming.

MAR 8, 2006
By Shawn Powers
Political pundits and media commentators heralded the February 2006 winter Olympics in Turin, Italy as the least controversial international events in recent memory. However, as with many Olympics prior, the Torino games helped to reframe the image of a small European community and invited both failed and successful attempts by countries around the world to use the Olympics as both a platform to prove their excellence in sports and to demonstrate their importance in the international political arena.
