Opis

Based on new archive research and original interviews, Headlines from the Holy Land explains why this fiercely contested region exerts such a pull over leading correspondents and diplomats.

Recenzje

"Headlines From the Holy Land is a readable and interesting examination of news coverage of what is now known as 'the Israeli-Palestinian conflict' ... . The caliber of the writing and reporting make this a good read for anyone interested in foreign correspondents at war, and Rodgers's insights make it worth reading for anyone interested in the crisis." (Catherine Cassara, Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly, Vol. 94 (2), February, 2017)
