  1. JRN 490 Peace Journalism Lesson 5: Media and Conflict By Metin Ersoy

  2. Lesson 5: Media and Conflict

  3. Lesson 5: Media and Conflict • Peace Journalism is based on the proposition that the choices journalists make while covering conflicts tend inescapably either to expand or contract the space available for society at large to imagine and work towards peaceful outcomes to conflicts. • Peace Journalism can help society at large think and speak about non-violence and creativity when dealing with conflicts.

  4. Lesson 5: Media and Conflict • How conflict influences the media versus how media can influence conflict? • How different is to cover a war being a foreigner or being a local (same for NGOs, governments, etc)?

  5. Lesson 5: Media and Conflict • The classical journalistic idea that ‘peace is no news’. • Why violence and conflict are news, and peace is not? • Is it possible to be fair and independent covering your ‘own’ conflict? • Shall media coverage and journalists inform or promote peace?
