Summary

Arguably, each country's media represented its opinions for or against the 2003 Iraq war, giving the viewer insight into the nation's stance on the war, and their political reasoning. By concentrating on the pre-war coverage, this group of scholars engages in a more open discussion of the issues than would take place during wartime, and uncovers the implications for each country's position on international concerns.
