Background: Social media provides women with varying platforms to express themselves, show their talents, communicate and expand their social relationships, and break the shackles imposed by their societies. Theoretically, social media can play a significant role in developing women’s freedom and decreasing social pressures; nonetheless, women continue to face violence during the social media era mainly in the form of psychological violence. Objective: This study aims to conduct an empirical in-depth analysis of how the digital space, particularly social media, provides men with new opportunities to surveil, restrict, harass, and intimidate feminists in Arab countries. Methods: This study includes an empirical survey to investigate what Arab women think are the causes and types of violence wielded against them and their perspectives on the impact of that violence. This study used a web-based questionnaire administered through Google Forms (n=1312) with responses from Arab women aged 15 years and above from all Arab countries. Results: We found that most Arab women feared posting an actual photograph of themselves on their social media accounts and only approximately one-third (490/1312, 37.3%) did so. Most women indicated that they encountered sexual harassment regardless of their age. Furthermore, most women were not aware of the legal aspects of this crime and even those who were aware indicated that they would not press charges for several reasons, including bringing dishonor upon their families, the time-consuming nature of litigation, and fear of revenge.

Sports media is one of the active media and communication fields that has become an appreciated presence and an important life reality for its audience, activities and tools, as well as its general and specialized media. Sports media also contributed during its long history positively to the process of communication performance and media work as a result of its evolutionary leaps and various transformations at the level of content, technologies and means. . Media charters are ethical controls and self-judgments that motivate media efforts towards high professional performance that is keen on respecting social systems and seeks to achieve media positivity, respect for impartiality, credibility and the desired integrity. It is often noted that Arab media charters are interested in indicators related to the performance of public media without allocating a set of controls related to sports media in particular, which makes the endeavor towards developing sports media charters an imperative in the near future in order to achieve an era of professional guarantees in this media field. The extent of the position of the sports system in the Arab media charters through scientific reading in the articles of the press code of honor issued by the Emirates Journalists Association.
Digital communication technology has been closely linked to human communication and its means, and this connection has led to a complex overlap between communication techniques and information technology to the extent that it is difficult to differentiate in the tasks and informational roles of each of them in traditional means of communication or media such as radio and television. The use of digital technologies, which started with the use of computers and its networks in media work and became more effective with the use of the Internet, has led to more transformations in the field of media work in traditional means of communication, as the use of digital technology has made a major shift with regard to media content and the form related to radio and television programs and materials. In addition to its impact on the means and tools of work within these means. This modest study attempts to scientifically approximate the impact of the Internet and digital communication technology on media performance in traditional means of communication, particularly radio and television, with a focus on relationships and transformations.
The relation between the media and education is so interrelated and harmonious that no one can distinguish their tasks in societies. This relationship becomes increasingly strong when one contemplates their extremely important role in the constructive communication process aimed at activating societies. They are also interrelated with economic, social, political, cultural and other fields of life. Media or communication is a complex process of activity through which man spends most of his\her life. (Abu Esba’ 199, p201) In an attempt to shed light on this relationship, this study aims at considering the educational consequences of the media in general and the Arab satellite channels in particular. To demonstrate the role of these channels in this respect, We analyzed random samples of data of the UAE society gathered through questionnaire and we came up with some results and proposals. One of the results of the study is that these channels are highly respected by the Arab audience and this can be positively exploited in the educational process. Another result is that the Arab audiences \viewers trust these channels as authorities in selecting the educational values through various forms of TV programs. The study also concludes that positive interaction is the best means of implanting educational values in societies by concentrating on positive useful sides and removing those negative ones of all TV programs in particular and the educational ones in general. As for the study proposals, it suggests that media should be activated in the education process through establishing an educational-societal-media system able to implant educational values in society enabling generations to interact positively with new realities of life.
