In contemporary conflicts, war no longer unfolds solely 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 apparatuses are also locked in struggle within another strategic arena: information itself.
Images, narratives, testimonies, analyses and videos circulating across social media have become powerful weapons capable of shaping global public opinion. In this environment, the press, whose mission is to gather, verify and disseminate information, faces considerable obstacles: restricted access to combat zones, manipulation by belligerents, organised propaganda, the spread of falsehoods and the permanence of digital warfare.
Information in wartime thus becomes an unstable terrain where truth is weakened, narratives compete relentlessly, and the perception of conflict can sometimes carry more weight than military realities themselves. This podcast examines how modern war is fought not only with weapons, but with stories, images and algorithms.
