VOICED: Islamic radio takes off in North Africa

In 2007, a new radio station hit the airwaves - Radio Zeituna, or the olive tree. The station is 100 percent Islamic, featuring religious songs, Koran readings and interviews with religious leaders, and marks a first for North Africa. It also highlights the resurgence of religious feeling in Tunisia, where mosques are full and locals are proud of their open, tolerant practice of Islam.
