The Spectacle of War: Insurgent Video Propaganda and Western Fesponse
Andrew Exum
Arab Media and Society - May, 2008
This paper focuses on the evolution of insurgent media operations in support of political-military objectives. Groups like the Taliban and Hizbullah did not start off, from the beginning, as sophisticated manipulators of popular perception. They learned, over time, how to shape the way in which military operations are perceived, and in the process, have taught Western militaries a valuable lesson in the nature of war itself.
