Bin Laden himself considered media manipulation on a par with military, political, and ideological tools, and intentionally used interviews, taped speeches, and distributed statements to further al-Qaida's ends. In Covering Bin Laden, editors Susan Jeffords and Fahed Yahya Al-Sumait collect perspectives from global scholars exploring a startling premise: that media depictions of Bin Laden not only diverge but often contradict each other, depending on the media provider and format, the place in which the depiction is presented, and the viewer's political and cultural background. The contributors analyze the representations of the many Bin Ladens, ranging from Al Jazeera broadcasts to video games. They examine the media's dominant role in shaping our understanding of terrorists and why/how they should be feared, and they engage with the ways the mosaic of Bin Laden images and narratives have influenced policies and actions around the world --$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aTerrorists$xPress coverage 606 $aTerrorism$xPress coverage 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTerrorists$xPress coverage. 615 0$aTerrorism$xPress coverage. 676 $a070.449303625 702 $aJeffords$b Susan 702 $aAl-Sumait$b Fahed 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460510003321 996 $aCovering Bin Laden$92040556 997 $aUNINA
