Table of ContentsReviews'The perceptive analysis presented on these pages highlights the basis for a radical reconsideration of some of our most familiar assumptions. It does so in a manner alert to journalism's shortcomings but also to its remarkable potential to foster points of emphatic connection at a distance. In this way, Shaw's intervention inspires us to reinvigorate our efforts to develop productive ways forward, to re-imagine new possibilities in the search for compassionate reporting respectful of the human dignity of others.' - Stuart Allan, Bournemouth University, UK Author Information"IBRAHIM SEAGA SHAW is a senior lecturer in Media and Politics & Programme Leader MA Media Cultures in the Department of Media, School of Arts and Social Sciences, at Northumbria University.
