Journalism And The War In Iraq: Absence Of Integrity And Humanity
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. For as long as man has been on planet Earth, he has faced a tremendous struggle between right and wrong; as history readily illustrates, his behavior has too often reflected a poor choice of direction where these two entities are concerned. Now in the twenty-first century, humanity continues to struggle with the same ethical dilemma of centuries ago: Where, if at all, is the line drawn between seeking personal gain at the expense of the masses? Indeed, this quandary appears to have little impact upon those journalists who report back on events of the Iraqi war, choosing instead to reach for the flashiest, most sensational profiles of courage and completely omitting some of the most valuable – albeit unexciting from a reporter's perspective – casualties of war: The innocent Iraqi citizens caught in harm's way. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Journalistic Autonomy in Egypt
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing the state of media freedom in Egypt for the purpose of determining Egypt’s media system type. The paper concludes that Egypt’s system is a transitional one. Formerly repressed, it has enjoyed more freedom than nearly any other Middle East nation in the past. The Mubarak regime, however, progressively has reduced freedom of the press. A 1995 law disallows overt criticism of government figures and is ambiguous enough that the government can build any type of case against nearly any real or perceived offending member of the media. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
