N2  - Media scholars investigating journalism during conflicts tend to focus on the news sections. This study, conversely, probes newspapers' sports, lifestyle, arts and entertainment supplements. Based on a close reading of Israel's leading daily newspapers' supplements during the 2006 Lebanon War (July-August 2006), the article's narratological analysis conceptualizes and distinguishes between 'in-group nationalism' and 'out-group nationalism'; that is, manifestations of nationalism that look inward, to the 'in-group' ('us'), expressed through journalistic representations of national unity (e.g. coverage of artists performing in war zones), versus manifestations of nationalism directed at 'out-groups' ('them'), which are scrutinized according to 'friend or foe' criteria while using charged terminology, including allegations of anti-Semitism. The article also refers to rare manifestations of anti-nationalism, which only serve to emphasize the overall 'rallying 'round the flag' of the supplements. This typology helps to expose the political role of popular culture during wartime.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
