Global Media Coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict cover

The attempts to evict Palestinian residents of Sheikh Jarrah in May 2021 
caught the attention of the world. While this small Palestinian 
neighbourhood in East Jerusalem had long been central to the 
Israel-Palestinian conflict, the planned expulsions pushed the situation 
back into the spotlight. This book discusses the complexity of the media 
war that took place at the same time. Across 20 chapters, it compares 
Israeli, Western, Palestinian and Arab media to understand how different 
narratives were discussed, supported and challenged. In particular, the 
book captures how social media became a site of online activism and 
alternative war narratives. The volume is unique in focusing on a 
specific event from many different perspectives and with material from 
different countries and media platforms. Case studies include the 
Spanish press; the African press; the BBC; /Al-Jazeera English/; TRT 
World Television; and digital media such as TikTok and Facebook, as well 
as the impact of social media activism. In doing so, the book also 
comments on the extent that citizen journalists challenge the propaganda 
war.
