Mariam Wahba on the Muslim Brotherhood’s Media Empire
For two years, Israel has been fighting a war on multiple fronts. Israel has delivered serious blows to Iran’s rulers, Hezbollah, and Hamas on the ground, but it hasn’t been winning the information war — a campaign of slander and blood libels fueled by a media empire built by the Muslim Brotherhood.
To expose where — from Al Jazeera’s studios in Doha to Turkish satellite channels and newsrooms in London — and how this empire works — amplifying Hamas disinformation, laundering Islamist ideology through “journalism,” and reshaping the narrative from Cairo to Washington — host Cliff May is joined by FDD’s Mariam Wahba.
