Btw, got any reference to the shows you are mentioning. I'd like to read a bit more about it.
You can get transcripts and view video of both shows at MEMRI. Transcripts were also made part of the record a couple years ago as part of some senate hearings. I'll see if I can find them archived at the US Senate site.

I beg to differ about the demonizing. You will not find the equivalent of these (and other) shows on official israeli, american, or european channels. You will certainly find political content and one sided arguments and even things that could be classified as propaganda. But for sheer dehumanizing poison, you'll find nothing to approach these shows.

You should also know that Iranian booksellers brought out new editions of "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" and an abridgement of that famous work called "The International Jew" for display in their kiosk at the world's largest book fair in frankfurt in 2005.
