  • Irish Media, Iraq and the Charge of Anti-Americanism
    Chapter 13 Irish Media, Iraq and the Charge of Anti-Americanism Sean Phelan The charge of anti-Americanism is, in short, an essentialising device to regu- late political difference. It seeks to deny the possibility of a hybrid political identity, to propagate the myth of a unified America, and to fix public dis- course on a closed range of positions. The enduring symbolic power and authority of the anti-American trope, what Said (1991) might describe as its false universalism, have been lamented by many. Yet, in accordance with the propagandised imperatives of wartime (Nohrstedt, Kaitatzi-Whitlock, Ottosen and Riegert, 2000: 384), some commentators predictably sought to reduce international media and political discourse about the 2003 Iraq war to the terms of this emotive label. This chapter considers the charge of anti-Americanism as part of a gen- eral investigation of how the Iraq war and diplomatic crisis were represented in a specific sample of Irish1 media texts. It is not arrogating itself as a chronicle of all the interesting Irish media coverage; nor is it claiming to be a compre- hensive discourse analysis of the selected texts. Instead, the focus is on those aspects of the texts – within the particular sample – that help illuminate the constructivist grounds of the anti-American charge. This chapter addresses three interrelated concerns: how the selected Irish media texts represent the Iraq war and diplomatic crisis; how the selected media texts represent the spectrum of anti-war/pro-war stances; and what characteristics of the media coverage leave some Irish media open to the charge of anti-Americanism from other media actors.

    May 20, 2020 Dear Mr. President, We are writing to ask for your help on an issue that threatens American jobs and outdoor traditions. As anglers, hunters and outdoor enthusiasts we are extremely concerned about a massive open-pit gold and copper mine that a Canadian mining company is proposing to build in the Bristol Bay region of Alaska. The efforts to develop the massive mine in this unique area threaten more than 14,000 American jobs, a fishery worth more than $1.5 billion dollars annually and a sport fishing and hunting paradise. It is considered a world-class fishing destination, which even your son and grandson have enjoyed. If built, the mine would decimate many miles of streams and up to 10 billion tons of mine waste would have to be stored without accident behind earthen dams, forever. The mine is relentlessly opposed by most Alaskans, as well as anglers, hunters and other outdoor recreation businesses from around the country. Preventing this mine from moving forward would protect American jobs, safeguard the culture of rural America, and ensure that our national outdoor heritage prospers. If Theodore Roosevelt were alive today, he would draw the line and stop this mine from jeopardizing so many things Americans value. Please stand up for American businesses, jobs and a hunting and fishing paradise by denying a permit for the proposed Pebble mine. Sincerely, 31,502 American Hunters, Anglers, and Outdoor enthusiasts. Mollie Bernhoft (Anchorage, AK) Kathryn Hunter (South Lake Tahoe, CA) Jacobe Mckittrick (Glenwood Springs, CO)
