The Miami Herald reports that the Bush administration has accelerated
its planning for a Cuban transition and is exploring new ways to broadcast
information to the island.
The Herald says that officials are looking at ways to get Radio and
TV Martí broadcasts into Cuba quickly but were cautious on committing

Radio and TV Martí are expected to get their own aircraft, but
those broadcasts won’t start until the end of August at the earliest,

The Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba has recommended using third-country

picked up on the island.
