N2  - Media and Political Conflict - News for the Middle East.   This text provides readers with an understanding of the ways in which news media do not become active participants in these conflicts. The author's 'political contest' model provides an approach to this important issue. The best way to understand the role of the media, he argues, is to view the competion over the news media as part of a larger and more significant contest for political control.
