Historically, news organizations located in the heart of confl ict zones have been an im- portant player in informing the public and shaping its understanding of particular issues. To advance research relating to international confl ict coverage the current study analyzed how Georgian, Russian, and American media framed the 2008 war in Georgia. By examining coverage in Izvestia and Reson- ance as well as Th e New York Times — which is an important example of how the confl ict was presented to the American public — this paper elucidates likely determinants of the type of news and events that are prioritized by media producers proximal to the region of confl ict. We fi nd the similarities in confl ict reporting are as interesting as their diff erences.

The emergence of personal media provides new opportunities to relate to our social world. Newspapers, network radio and television and news magazines reach down vertically, as it were, to reach everyone, men and women, rich and poor. Social media, such as magazines, websites, Facebook and Twitter, reach across horizontally to connect with communities already interested in particular topics. Th e availability of these two types of media allows us to pick and choose among agenda items to find a level of personal or horizontal comfort among messages that tell us what we should be doing and messages that entice us to do what we want to do. In short, this paper argues, we mix media agendas to create compatible public (and private) communities. The media agenda communities that are emerging are more like the flat strips that make papyrus paper than the massive stones that characterize the pyramids that dominate the horizon, an emerging papyrus society where authority is much more democratized and fused.
