Sahar TV is the name of two Iranian TV channels that are part of Sahar Universal Network (SUN) which is the branch of Islamic Republic Of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) responsible for broadcasting programs internationally. Programs are produced in English, French, Arabic, Urdu, Azeri, Kurdish and others. It broadcasts to Europe, Central Asia and the Caucasus, some parts of Northern Africa, Oceania, and all the countries in the subcontinent of India and Eastern Asia. == History == On 16 December 1997, Sahar Universal Network began broadcasting English programs for one hour a day. It gradually increased its airtime up to 4 hours a day. Although the main function of English TV is to propagate the Islamic educations, the structure of the topics and genres of programs in English TV is miscellaneous. In a general view, to promulgate its messages, English TV of Sahar Universal Network does not only take the political issues into account. In that case, politics is not the only matter that is focused by the English TV team, but the cultural, social and economical hot topics are concentrated. This medium makes use of different genres in producing the programs. News, miscellaneous programs, scientific and social documentaries, clips, game shows, etc. are some of these genres. English TV has produced works such as "Meteor of Religion" (Davood Alizadeh- 2008), "Sighs of Sorrow" (Mohammad Dargahi- 2009), "Sheikh of Siam" (Hamid Reza Kouhpaei- 2011), "Islamophobia" (Jamal Omidvar Tehrani- 2012) and among its most significant works one can refer to the routine daily or weekly programs including: *Pure Home (A live family program in 45 minutes which broadcasts every Sunday at 9:00 GMT. This program focuses on family issues like marriage, relationship among family members and other issues in family from religious point of view. Each week we invite an expert and focus in different subjects.) *Spectrum Iran (In this weekly live program in order to give more educational information, this 40 minute program tries to discuss and analyze the latest and most important cultural, social and educational events with the help of Iranian and foreign connoisseurs.), *Center Stage (This weekly and live program has been produced to answer this thematic and important question: Why should we convert to Islam? Therefore, the original Islamic instructions and educations are scrutinized without coming to a conclusion for or against Shiites or Sunnis. This program is to draw a beautiful picture of true Islam listening to different analysts' opinions through telephone conversation, SNG or in the studio. In this way, it wants to introduce this religion to English-speaking audiences all around the world.) *Horizon Magazine (As a cultural-theological magazine this program tries to act as a connecting rod between English Theological TV and its audiences to make the viewers familiar with the policies of this TV and the current religious or cultural issues.) *Iran Travel Guide (This program is broadcast weekly and aims to introduce and show touristy attractions of Iran, especially cultural heritage of this country to English-speaking audiences in order to attract tourists. Some parts of this program are produced in a live way and some parts in a produced way.) English service of Sahar Universal Network has produced many different documentary works (Mandela Companions, Siamese Sheik, Kenya, etc.) and other genres to be presented to its audience. In 2012, SAHAR interviewed military intelligence analyst American Gordon Duff of Veterans Today on the truth behind the 9/11 attacks including the theories of conspiracy theorists James Fetzer and David Ray Griffin. Some of this army sources state that state that nuclear weapons were used on the site. There was no evidence that any Muslims or hijacked airliners were involved. Rather Duff believes that any hijackers were actually Israeli citizens and that it is impossible for airlines to fly fast at low altitudes without disintegrating.〔(March 18th, 2013 | Posted by Gordon Duff 9/11 Interview with Gordon Duff, Sahar University (video) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sahar TV」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
