CPD Media Monitors follow the development of critical public diplomacy stories in world media. Current Media Monitors feature regularly updated news coverage from a variety of national and international sources on topical stories. The aggregated content is later reviewed and analyzed to produce a Media Monitor Report. The Reports organize media coverage by source, region or topic and provide a synopsis of its main public diplomacy implications.CPD Media Monitors do not intend to assess or comment on the accuracy of media reporting but to provide a representative survey of how various media are framing the coverage of the issues under review.

THE AFTERMATH OF KATRINA: AN UPDATE OF MEDIA COVERAGE, INTERNATIONAL REACTIONS, AND PUBLIC DIPLOMACY
SEP 20, 2005
By Shawn Powers
It has been over two weeks since Hurricane Katrina blasted through the Gulf States, and as Americans watch the tragedy play out, so has the rest of the world. This is part two of a report that surveys media coverage in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina that explores the media’s reactions and international impressions of American politics and culture. In an effort to highlight the diverse array of perspectives that have been expressed, this report draws attention both to traditional media sources, as well as to less prominent media outlets, including television coverage in Qatar and Internet news service in Saudi Arabia.

MEDIA COVERAGE OF HURRICANE KATRINA: IMPLICATIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS IN PUBLIC DIPLOMACY
SEP 8, 2005
By Shawn Powers
Global reactions to Katrina and its aftermath have ranged from tremendous sympathy with the victims to rampant critique of American policy and culture. For some, President Bush’s initial denial of humanitarian aid from the international community was read as another example of his arrogant, ‘go-it-alone’ attitude, while, for others, the Administration’s eventual requests for aid diminished the credibility of United States as an international leader. Much of the coverage has emphasized that both lesser-developed and impoverished countries, as well as typical adversaries of the United States, have offered humanitarian aid in the wake of the crisis.

WORLD PERCEPTION SERIES PART I: CHINA
APR 28, 2005
By Adele Lan Chen
The following is an aggregation of key articles and commentary evaluating both how the world views China and how China views the rest of the world. These articles suggest that China's economic "charm offensive" has been highly successful, as well as its cultural outreach, particularly in the developing world. However, these sources also underscore the fact that China's reputation for human rights violations and its growing military presence in the Pacific Rim present two major obstacles to improved foreign public opinion.
