DW started being discussed here – https://lemmy.world/comment/14345095

It was first mentioned as a reply to that comment. It was first being discussed here :https://feddit.org/comment/4011934

He didn't claim that tho? They are insinuating it. Why else would you mention that in a reply to a comment asking to prove a lack of credibility.

Trump/Biden did not in fact hire/fire staff at US Agency for Global Media (USAGM)

In the linked DW-article it says the administration hired/fired stuff. Which is arguably different then them doing it directly, although that is a bit pedantic I guess. My main point is that that alone does not makes RFA an unreliable source. I am using DW as an example because it exists in a similiar framework (directly appointed by a government administration) and yet is credible.
