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.

Past Media Monitor Reports
THE EUROPEAN UNION, A “QUIET SUPERPOWER” OR A RELIC OF THE PAST
MAR 30, 2007
By Iskra Kirova
The discussion on the future of the European Union has direct relevance to the study and practice of soft power and public diplomacy. Being the most successful advance in voluntary international cooperation in modern history , the European Union has made soft power by far the most prominent instrument in its foreign policy. The E.U.'s power of attraction is based upon values of peaceful cooperation through dialogue manifested in 50 years of deepening integration; the common market of free movement of people, goods, services and capital; and the European social model of the modern welfare state, which accounts for the prosperity and social stability of the region today.

HEZBOLLAH, ISRAEL, AND THE U.S.: A CONFLICT WITH FAR-REACHING IMPLICATIONS
AUG 23, 2006
By Jade Miller
The month long military confrontation between Hezbollah and Israel and the subsequent ceasefire and aid operation has had important public diplomacy implications not only for the two warring parties but for many other state and non-state actors. The conflict has commanded the world's attention. Much more than a land dispute or run-of-the-mill cross-border antagonism, the conflict has encapsulated, highlighted, and exacerbated many other strains in the region and in world politics at large.

THE WORLD CUP: GLOBAL UNITY AND NATIONALISM
AUG 3, 2006
By Jade Miller
Soccer, arguably the world's most popular sport, has the power both to unite the people of the world in a shared passion, and to divide citizens of opposing countries in unfettered nationalist zeal. While the 2006 World Cup did not produce any political results as dramatic as the "Football War" of 1969, much has been written in the world press about both the positive and negative implications of the tournament in today's climate.
