Serious efforts at media development have been underway since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, and in some cases even earlier. USAID, for example, opened its first radio station in Liberia in 1985. Despite these long-running efforts, today there is still a great need for media development assistance. Efforts at democratization will fail unless bolstered by strong, independent media. Although conditions are difficult, there are many opportunities for moving forward.
