Abstract
This article examines US and Israeli newspaper coverage of the Palestinian—Israeli and Fatah— Hamas conflicts in January 2008 to make claims about the role that national interests play in the manufacture of news. Specifically, the authors interrogate the ‘their/our’ news dichotomy to argue that when two nation-states’ foreign policy interests and their ‘Others’ converge, those shared assumptions will inform the meaning of ‘their’ news constructed by news organizations in different nation-states despite their choice of the professional or national narrative. The authors suggest that ‘their’ news can become ‘ours both’.
