Arab media deny ignoring Darfur


number of Arab journalists have rejected criticism that Arabic-language media has ignored the Darfur conflict.
In recent months, western experts and media advocacy groups have said that the alleged crimes committed in Darfur – rape, burning and razing of villages, and the plight of tens of thousands of refugees – have been poorly reported in the Arab press.
As recently as April 2007, the Middle East Media Research Institute (Memri) said the violence in Darfur had "received scant coverage in most of the Arab media".
