BBG member at the center of VOA censorship controversy previously accused of shoving a reporter
BBG member Michael P. Meehan, who reportedly was most directly involved in efforts to censor Voice of America Horn of Africa service reporting and to remove its service chief after Meehan and two other BBG members negotiated with the repressive regime in Ethiopia, had been previously accused of shoving a reporter to prevent him from asking questions of a candidate for a U.S. Senate seat. After the incident in January 2010, Meehan apologized and insisted he did not know he was pushing a reporter.
