In contemporary conflicts, war no longer unfolds solly on battlefields. It also takes place in the realm of minds and perceptions. Armies still confront one another on the ground, but governments, intelligence services and communication appear also locked in struggle within another strategic arena: information itself.
Images, narratives, testimonies, analyses and videos circulating across social media have become powerfulweapons capable of shaping global public opinion. In this environment, the press, which mission is to get, verify and disseminate information, faces considerable obstacles: restricted access to combat zones, manipulation by belligerents, organized propaganda, the spread of falsehoods and the permanence of digital warfare.
Information in wartime these comes an unstable terrain where truth is worn, narratives compete relentlessly, and the perception of conflict can sometimes carry more weight than military realities themselfs. This podcast reviews how modern war is thought not only with weapons, but with stories, images and algorithms.
