Exploring the interplay between news media and collective memory, this book examines how the portrayal of historical events shapes public perception and understanding of contemporary issues. It delves into the mechanisms through which media constructs narratives of the past and highlights the implications of these narratives on society's interpretation of current events. The analysis reveals the critical role of media in influencing not only historical awareness but also the ongoing dialogue about present-day realities.
