At \u003ci\u003eSabili\u003c\/i\u003e, established as an underground publication, journalists are hired for their ability at \u003ci\u003edakwah\u003c\/i\u003e, or Islamic propagation. At \u003ci\u003eTempo\u003c\/i\u003e, a news magazine banned during the Soeharto regime and considered progressive, many see their work as a manifestation of worship, but the publication itself is not considered Islamic. At \u003ci\u003eHarakah\u003c\/i\u003e, reporters support an Islamic political party, while at \u003ci\u003eRepublika\u003c\/i\u003e they practice a \"journalism of the Prophet\" and see Islam as a market niche. Other news organizations, too, such as \u003ci\u003eMalaysiakini\u003c\/i\u003e, employ Muslim journalists. Steele, a longtime scholar of the region, explores how these publications observe universal principles of journalism through an Islamic idiom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJanet Steele is associate professor of media and public affairs and international affairs at George Washington University.
