Al-Jazeeras Double Standards in the Arab Spring
Al-Jazeeras Double Standards in the Arab Spring
This book finds that Al-Jazeeras coverage of Bahrain and Syria has conformed with Qatars foreign policy, throughout the last decade (2011-2021). Al-Jazeera Arabic adopted Qatars double standards policy in both countries in the beginning of the Arab Spring, framing Bahrains protests as a sectarian movement, while depicting the Syrian armed conflict as a legitimate revolution (2011-2013). The book observes that when ties between Qatar and Bahrain worsened during the 2017 Gulf crisis, Al-Jazeera Arabic has shifted its coverage from being pro-Bahraini regime to pro-protesters, focusing on violations and giving voice to activists (2014-2021). The book concludes that the lack of Peace Journalism framing in Al-Jazeeras coverage of Bahrains uprising and Syrias chemical weapons attacks has represented claims as facts, and justified military action against Syria. It also reveals distinctive differences between Al-Jazeera Arabic and English, with theformer lacking objective reporting standards, and using more sectarian language than the latter.
