Focusing on the first two months after the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, this book presents quantitative and qualitative analyses of the main television news coverage of the war in 11 countries across the geopolitical spectrum. Contributors discuss coverage by Russia’s Vremya, Brazil’s Globo Jornal Nacional, India’s DD The News, China’s CCTV News, South Africa’s SABC News, Qatar’s Al Tase'ah, Finland’s YLE News, UK’s BBC News, Germany’s ARD Tagesschau, Italy’s RAI TG1 and US cable and broadcast network news. By selecting countries from across the geopolitical landscape and using a common methodological framework for a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the news in each country, contributors are able to draw clear comparisons and contrasts throughout the book. The analyses reveal both common and nation-specific themes and angles, demonstrating an unfettered relationship between news media and government and identifying geopolitical tensions and allegiances. Along with a substantive introduction, methodological framework, conclusion, and reflective epilogue, the collective chapters in this book consider how these cases speak to perennial issues across the globe.
