For context, Wikileaks revealed that USAID has given nearly half-a-billion dollars to Internews Network, a government-funded NGO. Internews Network has worked with over 4,291 media outlets, producing broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and training over 9,000 journalists.

The organization has offices in over 30 countries, including the US, London, Paris, and regional headquarters in Kiev, Bangkok, and Nairobi.

Jeanne Bourgault, who pays herself $451k a year, heads the organization and has a history with USAID. Internews Network’s website has recently removed bios of key people and board members, but records show the board being co-chaired by Democratic donors Richard J. Kessler and Simone Otus Coxe.
