Diplomacy and the Media

How diplomacy is shaped by the media, featuring a former NATO spokesperson and a defence journalist. Also, David Remnick on The New Yorker鈥檚 100th anniversary.

The future for Ukraine is fought not just on the battlefield but in the media. Governments carefully craft messages to influence global opinion, and media access is a crucial tool in shaping narratives. Former NATO spokesperson Oana Lungescu and The Times defence editor Larisa Brown explore how Ukraine, Russia, and Western nations use diplomatic messaging to project power and control perceptions.

David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker, reflects on the magazine鈥檚 100-year legacy. From long-form investigative pieces to cultural criticism, The New Yorker has defined literary journalism. Remnick shares insights on the magazine鈥檚 fact-checking process, its role in shaping public discourse, and why deeply reported journalism remains crucial in the digital age.
