Armed groups, including jihadist factions, launched coordinated and unprecedented attacks targeting sites belonging to the central authority in Mali. Despite the seriousness of these developments and the repercussions they may have on regional security in West and North Africa, they have not received extensive coverage in the international media. This limited interest in the war in Mali reflects the findings of a report issued by the Reuters Institute for Journalism Studies, which indicated that there is a clear disparity in the way the international media deals with conflicts and wars in different regions of the world. In this episode of the Journalism Forum, we address the roots and causes of this duality in media coverage, as well as its effects and repercussions, with a special focus on how it manifests itself on the African continent.

Program guests: Journalist Moncef Al-Salimi from Bonn, Germany. Nabil Chaufan, a journalist at Radio Monte Carlo International, and independent journalist Rania Omar from London.
