Havana, July 8 (RHC) -- Low morale plagues the office of the Cuba Broadcasting Office, the U.S. government organization that leads the anti-Cuba and so-called Radio and TV Marti, according to a new survey cited by the Miami Herald newspaper.

An article by journalist Michael Doyle McClatchy, published in the Herald on Monday, reads that “in a partially redacted report dated July 7th, based on employee interviews conducted last year, the State Department’s Office of The Inspector General cited morale as among the pressing challenges facing the Cuban broadcasting operations.”

Lack of transparency in decision making, inability to offer suggestions, and the lack of effective communication are some of the reasons for the low morale prevailing in what many call the “invisible television and the unheard radio station,” due to the effective countermeasures taken by the Cuban government in fighting the subversive broadcasts, which violate Cuban sovereignty and international telecommunications rules and standards.

The audit referred to by The Miami Herald tells about concerns by workers at the office in raising any issues to the inspection team because of fear of retaliation by management. But, the audit also revealed what it called “security deficiencies” at the broadcasting organization’s Miami office.

All these problems were detected during an inspection between September and November last year, conducted in Washington DC and Miami, as well as at a transmitter in Marathon, Florida, and at the Naval Air station in Key West.

The article omits saying that the Cuban people have never asked for such transmissions, that there is no bilateral accord in that field or how much of U.S. taxpayers' money has been spent on the useless radio and TV programs, which were set up as part of actions to provoke subversion inside Cuba.
