On the coverage of right wing extremism in Norway: Are we biased?
In this week´s episode of Political Bark we discuss right wing terrorism and how we talk about right wing terrorists. With us, we have Bjørn Ihler, Utøya survivor, peace activist, and part of the Kofi Annan "Extreme Together" foundation, that works on combatting terrorism. Ihler gives us the necessary perspectives and explanations as to why some are called terrorists, while others are called "shooters". We dicuss this from a Norwegian perspective, however draw on examples and numbers from the US. We try to ask and understand why there is a bias in media and elsewhere in the coverage of right wing terrorism. Photo: Erik Roseth
