  Hanoi Hannah
Radio Hanoi could be heard in most areas of South Vietnam, particularly at night and I would often join groups of American Gi's around 10:30pm having a few beers before bed and setting the dial for Hanoi Hannah for a few laughs.
Hanoi Hannah didn't necessarily make sense and there was a certain awkwardness; she used American English, but really didn't speak our language in spite of her hip expressions and hit tunes, even tunes that were banned on U.S. Army radio.
Hanoi Hannah could always be assured of at least the POW captive audience "authorized" to hear her broadcasts in the Hanoi Hilton.

 Hanoi Radio admits border overrun by invaders | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited
Radio Hanoi, quoting a Government statement, mentioned a number of towns near the Vietnamese-Chinese border as having been attacked - the farthest inside Vietnam being Muong Khuong, three miles from the border.
In an earlier broadcast, the radio said Vietnamese forces had destroyed or set on fire 46 Chinese tanks and killed hundreds of troops on the first day of the fighting.
The antagonism between China and Vietnam, springing from Hanoi's increasingly close alignment with Moscow, boiled over because China felt that the Vietnamese offensive against Kampuchea was both a threat to its dominance in a region it regards as vital to its security interests and an intolerable affront to its prestige.

Hanoi's leaders have not taken advantage of several opportunities for negotiations; this could mean that they believe nothing can be gained at the bargaining table unless it has already been won on the battlefield.
Hanoi would recognize that its chances for a military victory have evaporated, but it would still hope, by sustaining high levels of combat in the months ahead, to create the impression of a stalemate.

 Jane Fonda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
She also participated in several radio broadcasts on behalf of the Communist regime, asking US pilots to turn around without dropping their bombs.

Although opposition to the war was building in the U.S., Fonda's actions in July 1972 were widely perceived as an unpatriotic display of aid and comfort to the enemy, some characterizing it as treason.

 Dexter Lehtinen on Jane Fonda & Vietnam on National Review Online
She expressed "regret" for one photograph, but remains proud of her Radio Hanoi broadcasts, her efforts to achieve a Communist victory, and her attacks on American servicemen as war criminals.
So in a way Fonda is right — in practice, it is the photograph that reminds generations of who Jane Fonda really is. In her "regret," limited to the photograph alone, Vietnam veterans see Fonda’s endeavoring to ameliorate the harm to herself with virtually no regard to the harm she caused to others.
It was these broadcasts from the enemy's capital (not the gun photo) that gave her the lasting handle "Hanoi Jane" in emulation of "Tokyo Rose," an American who broadcast Japanese propaganda in World War II.
