Western broadcasts had a remarkable impact in the USSR and Eastern
Europe during the cold war reaching both mass audiences and key
elites. The effectiveness of these broadcasts was clearly attested
to by the massive resources the communist regimes spent in trying
to counter them.Communicating with the World of Islam draws from
the lessons learned in the cold war broadcasting experience to
suggest the best ways of organizing U.S. efforts to communicate
with Islamic people around the globe. Drawn from discussions at the
seminar "Communicating with the Islamic World," sponsored by the
Annenberg Foundation Trust at Sunnylands, this report examines the
impact of the Voice of America, Radio Liberty, the BBC, Radio Free
Europe, and other broadcasting tools had and suggests how the
United States can use these instruments today to counter extremism
effectively, promote democracy, and improve understanding of the
United States in the Islamic world. It details current broadcasting
efforts into Islamic countries and the Muslim communities of Europe
and explains each of the critical factors necessary to influence
the world of Islam in a positive direction, such as stressing
women's content programming, maintaining pressure on the rulers of
Qatar over the content and programming of Al Jazeera, and keeping
news content candid, tailored to local audiences, and unsparingly
accurate.
