These points, including my earlier argument about the media, while obviously important, do not take away from Rushing's more important and obvious message, that of communication. He sees English al-Jazeera as a means of broadening perspectives on both sides of just about any issue.

Mission Al Jazeera is well worth reading. The anecdotal style of writing is both entertaining and informative, producing a good view of the author's character, his positive intentions, and his belief that al-Jazeera could be the model for a renewed global media perspective.
