<p>If you live in the US and need to follow events in the Middle East closely, <a href="http://www.linktv.org/mosaic">Mosaic</a> is absolutely indispensable. A thirty-minute long aggregation of regional television news programming broadcast on <a href="http://www.linktv.org/">Link TV</a>, the show is the brainchild of award-winning producer <a href="http://www.jamaldajani.com/">Jamal Dajani</a>.</p>
<p>A Jerusalem native, and a resident of the San Francisco Bay Area, I spoke to Dajani about his work on Mosaic for the March issue of <a href="http://www.zeek.net/803schalit/">Zeek</a>. What transpires is a fascinating conversation about the state of Middle Eastern media today, and its increasing importance for Americans.</p>
<p>If you enjoy this piece, check out <a href="http://mashdownbabylon.typepad.com/mashdown/2007/11/covering-the-co.html">Covering the Coverage</a>, and <a href="http://mashdownbabylon.typepad.com/mashdown/2007/09/left-of-the-mid.html">Left of the Middle East</a>. Short excerpts from my book, they cover much of the same topical ground as my conversation with Dajani, but focus on US and otherwise progressive Western news media instead.</p>
