DESCRIPTION: Journalists control our access to news. By pitching stories from particular angles, the media decides the issues for public debate. In Reporting Conflict, the authors challenge reporters to tell the real story of conflicts around the world. The dominant kind of conflict reporting is what they call war journalism: conflicts are seen as good versus evil, and the score is kept with body counts. The media's handling of 9/11 and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq highlight the one-sided reporting that war journalism creates. Peace journalism uses a broader lens: why not report what caused the conflict, and how it might be resolved? Lynch and Galtung show how journalists could have reported the Korean War, the NATO bombing in Kosovo and the first Gulf War, sparking a more informed discussion of these important issues.
