Petr Brod: Radio Free Europe was a lifeline behind the Iron Curtain

The U.S. government has announced it will stop funding Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty—a station that once played a vital role in Czechoslovakia’s fight for freedom. In the weekend edition of Czechia in 30 minutes, journalist and historian Petr Brod shares personal memories of working at RFE/RL in Munich and later in Prague. From newsroom "tribalism" to the station's mission during the Cold War, Brod offers a rare inside look at one of the most influential broadcasters of the 20th century.
