Red, Green, and Blue: Islamism’s Reach in Conservative Media
This is part 4 of 6 in our series in collaboration with the Middle East Forum.
AJU’s Rick Richman will be joined by Middle East Forum’s Jim Hanson and David Reaboi for an analysis of how conservative media covers Islamism in the Middle East. The panel will explore the strengths of conservative media outlets in addressing issues related to radical Islamist movements, such as providing nuanced perspectives and countering mainstream narratives. The discussion will also focus on areas where reporting and analysis could improve, including the challenges of balancing ideological viewpoints with factual accuracy and the need for a deeper understanding of the complex political dynamics in the region.
