Hawk, examines media coverage of Africa by American television, newspapers, and magazines. Scholars and journalists of diverse experience engage in debate concerning U.S. media coverage of current events in Africa. As each African crisis appears in the headlines, scholars take the media to task for sensational and simplistic reporting. Journalists, in response, explain the constraints of censorship, reader interest, and media economics. Hawk's book demonstrates that academia and the press can inform each other to present a fuller and more sensitive picture of Africa today. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis volume will be of interest to scholars and practitioners in African studies, African politics, journalism, and international relations.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBEVERLY G.
