The Palestinian Media and Anti-Americanism

Abstract

Palestinian radio and television are controlled by the Palestinian Authority. There are also half a dozen small, nominally independent newspapers, but all of which are very much influenced by the regime. Al-Hayat al-Jadida is the most “official” newspaper of the three Palestinian dailies, which also include al-Quds and al-Ayyam. After the 2006 elections to the Palestinian Legislative Council and Hamas’s resounding victory, two new outlets sponsored by Hamas, al-Aqsa television and Felesteen, have prominently waged a battle of the minds between the Palestinian Authority controlled by Mahmud Abbas and the Hamas government that has controlled Gaza since 2007.
