Abstract

This research explores the portrayal of Arabs in European media and examines how this image is addressed across various media outlets, including news, analytical programs, cultural shows, and talk shows. The study analyzes media coverage to determine the extent of bias or neutrality in representing Arabs and their issues, and how this representation affects political and social relations between the Arab world and Europe. The research utilizes multiple methodologies, such as content analysis and interviews with media experts, to understand the different dimensions of this portrayal and its impact on European audiences' perceptions of Arabs and Muslims. The study also discusses the potential implications of such media coverage on Europeans' understanding of Arab and Islamic issues, while highlighting ways to promote cultural dialogue and understanding between the two sides through media. The research concludes with a set of strategic recommendations for improving the representation of Arabs in European media, focusing on fostering mutual understanding and reducing negative biases and discrimination. These efforts aim to build a more balanced and realistic image of Arabs, ultimately contributing to improved relations and cooperation between Europe and the Arab world.
