Schulz, Waldemar, head of RFE unit of German Employees Union, member of Works Council.

Bush, Keith, director of the research department of Radio Liberty.
23 Jun 1981. This interview covers a wide range of topics. It begins with Bush's biography: his educational background and how he came to work at Radio Free Europe. It moves to changes he's seen in the organization over the years. He says the biggest is the emphasis on nationalities, with another noticeable change being the types of programming moving away from the timeless to the topical. The interview moves to the topic of RL employees' familiarity with the covered nations, which includes the scope of RL's programming--with an emphasis on health news. Mickelson concludes by inquiring about the non-Russian Soviet republics, where RL gets its researchers, and how Bush hopes to expand the research division.

Included, but not limited to, in this is the Hungarian Revolution, Czech events, what the listener heard, ecology as a broadcast topic, and CIA involvement.
