The War Report: Israel/Palestine in German and American Media Coverage
Since the October 7th Hamas terrorist attack on southern Israel, the Israel-Hamas War and humanitarian crisis in Gaza have dominated headlines around the world. But how has news coverage itself shaped global attitudes towards the conflict, and how can journalism provide the basis for holding shared conversations about a polarizing issue? In this discussion, journalists Hanno Hauenstein, Ben Mauk, and Alena Jabarine will examine similarities and differences in American and German reporting on Israel/Palestine, including the dominance of corporate media, ideological bias within the newsroom, and the roles of social media and misinformation.
ABOUT THE FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT SERIES
The American Council on Germany and the Goethe-Institut invite you to a series of discussions throughout the United States highlighting how German and American journalists based in the United States currently see political and social developments in Germany, the United States, and internationally.
Over the course of the series, our speakers will address a range of topics that affect citizens in both countries.
