Moreover, a producer in creating the communications media, it’s too much to hope for. The Implications arising from the position of Islam as it is, in the global communication course, does not have the power to play a signifcant role. The presence of Islam in the new global communications limited discourse that has great potential to rise. Media are widely used by Iran in building its revolution as expressed by Majid Tehranian in his book Global Communication and World Politics has not given a role in the global arena.
