ARMENIAN GENOCIDE COVERAGE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE
Western Queens Gazette

Cover art from the online exhibition of front-page coverage of the
Armenian genocide by foreign media.
Armenian genocide has always been in the spotlight of foreign
media. Foreign media publications condemning the violence of Ottoman
power against Armenians serve as indirect evidence of the fact that
the Turkish atrocities were, indeed, genocide committed against
Armenians. Global media coverage is vital in that it touches upon
numerous issues concerning Armenian genocide. Especially notable
are English, Russian, French and American coverage and publications
on issues pertaining to Hamidian massacres, Adana atrocities and,
of course, the Genocide of 1915-1922. Publications with photos are
especially remarkable, for they convey valuable information about
genocide as a phenomenon, its process and consequences.
An exhibition of front-page coverage of the Armenian genocide by
foreign media is now available online for the first time. The coverage
of the issue began appearing at the beginning of the 19th century and
continues finding its place in modern-day media publications. These
publications evidence the worldwide response on the Armenian genocide
issue confirming its actuality, importance and awareness among the
international community. The online exhibition presented by the
Armenian Genocide Museum- Institute, although valuable, is only a
modest part of such publications open for new material submissions.
