Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - State Minister for Media Affairs, Amjad al-Adayleh, called for crystalizing an Arab media effort that aims at affecting the Western societies, and breaking the stereotypical image.

The minister made his remarks as he participated at the International Government Communication Forum (IGCF) 2020, held in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates.

Such media efforts, al-Adayleh said, needs to be affiliated with the Arab League, or Mega Arab media institutions, adding that there is no state can do such a huge project alone.

He pointed out that a unified media effort, if achieved, would break the stereotypical image that links extremism and terrorism to Arabs and Muslims.
