The Western Journal: Fact Check: Did USAID Fund Left-Wing News? Here's What We Can Prove for Now
Recent discussions have emerged regarding whether USAID has funded mainstream media outlets like The New York Times and Politico, particularly under the Biden administration. Claims suggest significant government expenditures, but investigations reveal that much of the reported funding is misattributed or consists of subscription fees rather than direct financial support.
While The New York Times reportedly received $1.6 million over five years, primarily for subscriptions, Politico's situation is more complex. Although it does not receive direct funding, government agencies pay for its premium service, Politico Pro, raising concerns about potential conflicts of interest in coverage. However, no concrete evidence of a direct quid pro quo relationship has been established.
