Analyzing media coverage in cases where cultural heritage sites have been destroyed during conflict, occupation, and war, this book highlights the important role media play in the preservation of cultural heritage when states or other combatants engage in human rights violations.

Author Mischa Geracoulis discusses how the role of journalism and the media during times of conflict is to report information from the front lines and war zones with integrity, and report accurately when states or other combatants engage in human rights violations. This book examines the media coverage, language, and discourse surrounding two key situations--the destruction of Armenian cultural heritage in Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabakh and that of Palestinian cultural heritage in Gaza--and explores the ways media coverage has succeeded or failed in accurately illustrating the destruction of cultural heritage as a human rights violation. Geracoulis emphasizes the importance of factual, ethical reporting and sufficient coverage, underlining professional journalistic standards and best practices for the future to ensure similar destruction is not only understood but responded to within a human rights framework.

This book will be of interest to students and scholars of media, journalism, and cultural studies, as well as media professionals interested in the role and influence of media framing and narratives on war, conflict, human rights, and humanitarian response.

Mischa Geracoulis is a human rights journalist and critical media literacy expert, and Managing Editor at the media watch and education organization Project Censored and its publishing imprint The Censored Press. With a background in the politics and culture of Southwest Asia, the Middle East and North Africa (SWANA/MENA), Mischa serves on the editorial board of The Markaz Review. Her writing on UN Article 19 and US First Amendment issues, journalistic ethics and standards, and truth in reporting can be found in independent news and academic publications.
