20 December 2024
CALENDAR RELATIONSHIPS

“In any conflict, propaganda and the spread of false information is commonplace. For example, a study on the coverage of fatalities during the Russia-Ukraine war found that there are two times more emphasis on civilian deaths by the Russian and US media than by the Ukrainian media. The Russians report much lower number of casualties on their side than the West does. Sometimes, the governments use media for their negotiation strategies, treating itinstrumentally to get feedback or check the reactions of the world. So, the risk of manipulating public opinion by reporting and commenting remains high. At the same time, the lack of proper media coverage ends with events disappearing from public attention.”
