The Snowden saga: Spies, secrets and securityJan 4, 2014A look back at the biggest media story of 2013 - Edward Snowden and the NSA surveillance programme.Egypt: Journalism under siege?Jan 11, 2014Listening Post examines how covering the Muslim Brotherhood has become a minefield for the media.South Sudan and the media of conflictJan 18, 2014When fighting broke out a month ago in the world's youngest country, South Sudan, the story was framed as just another tribal power struggle coming out of Africa. A more precise analysis is that the conflict is really political in nature - a fallout between the president and the vice president, with some ethnic elements fighting it out on the ground. Those who are critical of the media say that, when it comes to Africa, all too often international news outlets resort to the same formula - reducing just about any conflict to the tribal level, which seems to explain everything without actually telling us anything. Is there a hierarchy of knowledge in reporting about Africa, with more authority given to international journalists?Turkey: The media sub-plotJan 25, 2014We examine how news outlets have become part of the story in the recent scandal involving Erdogan's government.Russia's media OlympicsFeb 1, 2014Ahead of Sochi's Olympics, we ask how the Kremlin will handle the news coverage that comes with hosting the games.Egypt's media warFeb 8, 2014As journalists face arrest, we ask why the media is seen as being either with the army or with the Muslim Brotherhood.
