it is already hard to find a part of the world that doesn't listen to BBC World Service..so it seems like a natural move.
Yes, and hopefully others will follow. Looking at the price it would cost vs. money used on security, then it is very cheap. Getting 10-50 western stations working in the middle east, would change the information flow, and start dividing peoples view on life... let it be different channels with different themes like news, family, kids, education, science, travel, democracy etc. All things which shows the Arabic viewer that the west is much more, than what they are told by their Islamic leaders.
