War Journalism and peace journalism

 War Journalism:

  1. Focus on Conflict: War journalism primarily emphasizes violent conflict, battles, and military engagements.
  2. Dichotomous Framing: It often presents a binary perspective, categorizing parties as "good" vs. "evil."
  3. Event-Driven: Coverage tends to be immediate and event-driven, focusing on the latest developments and dramatic incidents.
  4. Victimization and Blame: It frequently highlights suffering and atrocities, often assigning blame to specific parties.
  5. Official Sources: Relies heavily on information from official sources, such as government and military spokespersons.

Peace Journalism:

  1. Focus on Solutions: Peace journalism seeks to highlight potential solutions and peaceful alternatives to conflict.
  2. Inclusive Framing: It aims to provide a more nuanced view, recognizing the complexities and multiple perspectives involved.
  3. Contextual Reporting: Emphasizes the underlying causes of conflict and broader context, rather than just immediate events.
  4. Humanization: Strives to humanize all parties involved, reducing stereotypes and dehumanization.
  5. Diverse Sources: Uses a wider range of sources, including civil society organizations, local communities, and independent experts.
