Conflict,
Communication and the Media
(Fall 2009)
The first article
in
this Fall 2009 issue is Amani Ismail's
“Communicating politics online: The rhetoric of
terrorism and resistance”. Ismail considers how two
groups that have been classified as terrorist
organizations use the WWW in order to both transcend
traditional media boundaries and to play more active and
creative roles in constructing images of themselves for
global public consumption. Mervat Youssef
provides the second article in this issue with a focus
on the role of the media in constructing ways of
thinking about the casualties of war. Youssef asks how
CNN and Aljazeera performed during the 2003 Gulf War and
whether their reporting on Iraqi casualties was also a
vehicle for propaganda.
