The watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington has requested a congressional investigation into whether a U.S. government propaganda radio and TV station can be broadcast over the commercial airwaves in southern Florida. The U.S. government recently reached deals with two South Florida commercial Spanish-language TV and radio stations to broadcast TV and Radio Marti, which are run by the U.S. government and have historically been beamed into Cuba as part of a U.S. effort to overthrow the Castro government. The Miami Herald has reported the White House is now pushing to begin broadcasting on local stations in Miami even though the government is prohibited under the Smith-Mundt Act from broadcasting propaganda inside the country.
