Cubriendo el Islam. Como los medios de comunicacion y los expertos determinan nuestra vision del resto del mundo (Arena Abierta)

Resumen

Covering Islam is a 1981 book written by Palestinian author Edward Said about how the Western media distorts the image of Islam. Said describes the book as the third and last in a series of books in which he analyzes the relations between the Islamic world, Arabs and East and West, France, Great Britain and the United States.
Covering Islam deals with issues during and after the Iranian hostage crisis, and how the Western media has speculated on the realities of Islamic life. Said questions the objectivity of the media, and discusses the relations between knowledge, power and the Western media.
