Iraqi journalists join hands under National Media Alliance
To provide better coverage of the Mosul operation and fight the Islamic State propaganda, several Iraqi media outlets have joined a media alliance.
BAGHDAD — With the beginning of the battle to liberate Mosul, several media outlets, including governmental and private media, decided to wage a media battle against the Islamic State (IS) by establishing the National Media Alliance on Oct. 17 to support the operations to liberate Mosul.
This came as a response to IS propaganda, which has been conducting an extensive media campaign through its personal pages on social networking sites, where the organization wages psychological warfare, recruits fighters and attracts supporters.
