Difference between the war journalist and peace journalist

While talking about difference between the War journalists and peace journalists Galtung says war journalists tends to concentrate on the physical account, the number of deaths and issues like who wins and who lose where as peace journalism offers an alternative approach to journalists (Galtung, 1998). Peace journalists while giving the physical account of the conflict, they ought also to give the structural and cultural causes of violence as they affect the lives of the people. Such news stories aim to provide a platform for communication between all the conflicting parties and, at the same time, suggest possible solutions or initiatives that can reduce the intensity of the conflict.
One fundamental difference between the two kinds of journalism reporting conflict is that the reporters in the former are expected to be ‘dispassionate observers’ of the events whereas peace journalists assume a more ‘involved role’ giving opinions along with the facts.
