An episode of America Abroad Radio discusses the use of media in the Middle East, acknowledging its use as a means of spreading intolerance, but also as a tool to fight back and promote pluralism and openness. 

There’s a vast media landscape in the Middle East, and some have leveraged the power and reach of this media to spread an ideology of intolerance. In the past few years, new broadcasters have been using their bully pulpit to fight back. This month on America Abroad, we learn about how some religious clerics and media personalities are finding new ways to speak to young people and to broadcast programs that advance themes of pluralism and openness.
