Series: SOAS Palestine Studies

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.

Reviews for Global Media Coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict: Reporting the Sheikh Jarrah Evictions

The book is unique in its focus on a specific event that is explored from many different perspectives and from different regional contexts. The case material from different countries and different media platforms creates an understanding of global media wars in practice which is not commonly seen in academia in current years. -- Ehab Galal, Associate Professor Emeritus, University of Copenhagen, Denmark Noureddine Miladi and his colleagues provide valuable analyses of efforts to achieve narrative dominance in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Their examination of conventional news coverage, social media content, and public diplomacy underscores the complexities of media roles in the contest for global public opinion. * Philip Seib, Professor Emeritus of Journalism and Public Diplomacy, University of Southern California * This is a must read for those interested in media and conflict. It offers an inclusive news analysis of global sources from the Middle East, Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa. It’s inclusive approach to examine reporting, advocacy, diplomatic efforts and representational issues beyond legacy and platform-based media to the emerging battlefields of social networks and ground activism. * Associate Professor Abeer Al-Najjar, American University of Sharjah, UAE *
