ABSTRACT
Peace journalism defines war as a problem in itself and promotes non-violence as a means of conflict resolution. Johan Galtung’s model builds on the dichotomy between what he calls “war journalism” and a “peace journalism” approach. The model includes four main points in which he contrasts the two approaches: war journalism is violence-oriented, propaganda-oriented, elite-oriented and victory-oriented. Peace journalism is people-oriented in the sense that it focuses on the victims and thus gives a voice to the voiceless. Twice as many people preferred video games to watching television. Three times as many preferred video games to going to the movies, and six times as many preferred video games to renting movies. The quality of video games developed in tandem with the growth of violent content in the games, and the violence has become more and more realistic. The game market is a mass market with a variety of attractive offers to fill the spare time of young people.
