THE IRAQ WAR IN BANGLADESHI NEWSPAPERS. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 132
The war in Iraq 2003 is the most media-covered event
in recent years. This war has been the centre of
global attention, and the world media have covered
this war prominently. The US administration was
successful in creating propaganda on weapons of mass
destruction in the context of the invasion of Iraq.
Beside this, the Western mass media played a
controversial role as they not only played the
propaganda war but also legitimated the US invasion
of this seat of ancient civilizations. While a number
of studies have been conducted in this field around
the world, Bangladeshi media, however, have not
received any attention. This book addresses the gap
in the literature. Therefore, this book is a
non-conventional and pioneering work in the field of
Bangladeshi media. 'The Iraq War in Bangladeshi
Newspapers' is the basis of the author’s Master of
Philosophy thesis, which was submitted in March 2006.
This analysis focuses on newspaper coverage in
Bangladesh of the Iraq war 2003, and offers useful
insights to students, young scholars and people
interested in war, politics, history and media.
