Huffington Post Arabic-Smart Outreach, Sure To Infuriate Bigots
Dirct Link: Huffington Post Arabic -
Kudos! Good to see this. The link takes you right there, but for us non arabic readers, a helpful translate panel comes right up. You who do read arabic can judge the content, and its translations for yourselves.
I found this interesting as Al Jazeera America finds it’s way in the news arena. Al Jaz IMHO has taken a turn to the left in it’s documentaries. Their hard news coverage still seems relatively objective to me. Will Huffpo be changed by a big new audience? I think so and hope in a good way.
The best weapon against bigotry is sometimes sheer familiarity. Day to day realities are common experiences even with vasy geo or cultural differences. Learning how another copes thins out the fear from the unknown.
