These pieces have been organized here into four broad sections. The first chapter explores different ways in which the news is skewed, especially Israeli ... more
"A review of the literature indicates a plethora of studies examining the coverage of Middle Eastern conflicts, but hardly any research has been explicitly framed as being developed from a peace/war journalism perspective. The current study, therefore, represents a substantive effort to remedy this ... more

These are words the use of which is liable to give away the reporter’s communal identity ... more

Five and a half years late ... more

"The quantitative content analysis identified the amount and the patterns of media reporting on delicate interethnic and interfaith issues, focusing on respect of different aspects of professional and ethical standards. The method of Critical Discourse Analysis is applied for the qualitative analysi ... more
