  <abstract>The book explores the close relationship between media institutions and power elites in Arab societies. This relationship exists within an unprecedented state of competition among global powers for influence and control over necessary resources and consumer markets in the Middle East. These conflicts still ravage these societies, including Palestinian society, designated as a region characterized by "organized chaos," dominated by multiple forms of increasing political instability and complex sources of internal turmoil. Taking the specificity of the Palestinian internal conflict as a case study, the book explores the interrelationships between power elites at the three levels of international, regional, and domestic politics, via the news message of satellite TV news media outlets. This book will interest scholars of the Middle East, of media and authoritarianism, and of the sociology of the Arab world. Hussein Al-Ahmad holds the position of Assistant Professor of Strategic Communication and serves as the Deputy Dean at the Faculty of Graduate Studies at Arab American University. His research is dedicated to the exploration of Middle Eastern politics and ongoing conflicts, with a particular focus on mediatization and mediatized conflict. His work emphasizes the study of contemporary pan-Arab media and its impact on shaping the Arab public sphere.</abstract>
