I've Been Thinking:
The Russians have decided to launch a Muslim TV network. The idea was suggested three years ago by the current President of Russia, Medvedev.
Twenty million Muslims live in Russia and there has been a significant amount Muslim anti - Russian and anti-government activity over the past few years.
The suggestion that the new media, specifically TV as well as other forms of high tech transmissions, can shape the way people see things in ingenious.
By using modern media Russia can educate and acculturate the Muslim population and influence them. The vision would be to expose Russians to the positive sides of Russian democracy and Russian culture.
TV and other modern media could be the greatest vehicle ever to reach out and modulate extremism.
