Review Quotes
Janice J. Terry is professor emeritus of modern Middle Eastern history at Eastern Michigan University and adjunct professor at the Institute of Learning in Retirement and Marietta College, Ohio.
"William Haddad’s scholarly account of how the Arab press has covered the Arab-Israeli conflict over the last half century is a welcome and long overdue contribution to our collective knowledge of the conflicting narratives of Israelis, Palestinians and other Arabs. The inclusion of a wide range of newspapers from a number of different Arab nations highlights both the similarities and differences of press coverage within the Arab world. Arab editorials on the conflict are also put within a global perspective. The general low level of proficiency in Arabic in most of the western world, as well as deeply embedded cultural and political biases, has resulted in the Arab press being largely ignored, understudied or worse, misrepresented in the West; this book is a major contribution in filling that gap."
