the number of channels matter not , its their quality that matter and sadly you put all IRIB channel together you may be able to put one or two quality channel together the rest are shit and waste of money .
Quantity really matters as well, I don't think Goebbels was mistaken on this (and he understood propaganda quite well).
they simply must eat the frog and instead of wasting our national resources on them allow private sectors to enter this area .
A private sector which is itself susceptible to favor globalist interests, and is largely dominated by 'gharb-gerā' business people... That'd be a little bit like shooting oneself in the foot, I'm afraid.
Also, generally speaking capitalists care about profit maximization first, not about conveying religious or national values to citizens (unless they share an ideological motivation to do so, which in case of Iran's largely pro-liberal private business sector is not really the case). Privatization isn't automatically synonymous with enhanced quality either.
about intenet we boast about the most powerful ideology but fail to deliver it to our young and reach the conclusion because foreigner can talk better well let not allow our young hear them . i only result in s become weaker , it result in us not being able to defend what we preach.it result in our next generation throw's the gauntlet away and surrender.
I never said Iran doesn't need to improve the quality of its messaging. Yes, it certainly does and its performance in this area leaves to be desired. However is this a reason for exposing Iranian citizens to dangerous and destructive propaganda, psy-ops and social engineering?
We also don't say, "let's allow terrorist groups to freely recruit new members, since we failed at convincing those recruits otherwise", do we...? I believe when a nation's basic security is at stake, competition in the realm of information can and should be checked.
about the bold part participate in their discussion and break their logic not try to silence them . or in this matter deafen your people .
at the end sword will never conquer pen, learn to wield pen
Yes, that's also a requirement. But when they have a billion times the resources you have, in any so-called "free space of debates" they will manage to drown your voice at the end of the day. For example, do so-called "social media" have a policy of allocating equal amounts of user accounts to pro-Iran and anti-Iran / opposition voices? Of course not, anyone can create their account. And Iran's opponents are just much more numerous. Are the search functions on these websites doctored in an anti-Iranian sense? They sure are. Do their moderating teams practice censorship against pro-IR users as a matter of policy, while largely sparing opponents of the IR? Absolutely.
So even if pro-IR users come out on top in more than 50% of debates in which they participate, it will have no impact on most readers, because pro-IR users would not be capable of addressing all the anti-Iran propaganda these sites are being flooded with. Successfully conducted debates by supporters of the Revolution will not even be noticed by the majority of the Iranian online audience.
Also, even if public and private publishers in Iran involved themselves as much as humanly possible in improving the visual quality and content of their media, they could still not compete with their foes, whose financial resources are incomparably greater. Likewise, a professionally trained element is always more likely to "win" an online debate. Here again, Iran is at a structural disadvantage vis a vis her existential enemies, since Iran just doesn't have the resources to train as many PR operatives, and to train them as well as they do.
