December 29, 200421 yr http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3486109.stm Could this be our time's version of Radio Free Europe? Sure seems so, al-Hurra has been very successful in drawing the eyes and ears of people in the Arab world. Even though they know the U.S. backs the channel, it still has huge ratings in the Arab world. Here is the official website: http://www.alhurra.com/ Here is the Radio Sawa link: http://www.radiosawa.com/ Here is an article on the success it has had: http://news.findlaw.com/prnewswire/2004093...2004162349.html Al Hurra is now the exclusive outlet for US officials to speak to the Arab world on. Each country's news service still has rights to US officials, but Al Jazeera no longer is considered "fair" and impartial.
