The Agonist: Iraqi TV head quits

The Agonist: Iraqi TV head quits: "The postwar director of U.S.-backed Iraqi Television has quit, saying the United States is losing the propaganda war to countries like Iran and to the fugitive Saddam Hussein.
Three months after being flown to Baghdad on board a U.S. plane to relaunch Iraqi television and radio, former exile Ahmad Rikabi is disillusioned and back in London for the foreseeable future. "

This is second or third media propaganda failure by the U.S. in muslim countries over the past 6 months or so. I dunno, maybe we should give the TBN a shot at it...
