“In a war between nations, peace journalism requires you to be non-partisan – to give equal coverage to peace efforts in your nation and those of all other combatant nations,” argued Curtin University’s Asian Media Studies professor Dr Krishna Sen speaking at the Asia Media Summit in Kuala Lumpur.
But News World Asia chairman Dr Andrew Taussig, said he disliked the phrase as it implied that journalism was “loaded”. [Does Dr. Taussig employ “war correspondents”?]
“While we know that peace for some may be defeat for others, let us, in particular, not depict peace journalists either as proxies of third parties or as people who can function only if they have squads of conciliators and psychotherapists following in their train.”
Dr. Sen warned that “development journalism” had been co-opted by governments to “supress rather than enlighten.” [By acting like business pages and Wall Street shows?] She said peace journalism shares that danger.
