| The Image of the West in the Arab Media | |
By Maurice Abu Nader 16 Sep, 2011 The Perception of the Other |
The journalistic discourse in "Al-Ahram" displays both positive and negative characteristics in the portrayal of the West. The negative aspects of medial perception emerge in particular in the idea of a "hegemonic demeanour", while the positive aspects are based on terminology such as "scientific superiority", "reason" and "technical progress". The international edition of "Al-Hayat" presents a similar image of the West to its Muslim Arab readership, although "Al-Hayat" sets greater store by political ideas than by daily political events. -- Maurice Abu Nader http://newageislam.com/NewAgeIslamMuslimMedia_1.aspx?ArticleID=5511 | ||
