"Reporting the Arab-Israeli Conflict investigates how Israeli media, while taking an increasingly critical view of Zionism and successive Israeli governments, remains within the realm of hegemonic culture. Liebes shows how Western-type journalism supports the dominant ideology though various establishment ties, and how it abandons a watchdog role to support the "right" side in times of stress."--Publisher description.
