Goldsmiths is staging an all-day conference, "Media and war: challenging the consensus", on Saturday (17 November). It is linked to the publication of the book Media & Terrorism: Global Perspectives, edited by Des Freeman and Daya Kishan Thussu.

Among the expected speakers will be John Pilger, Peter Oborne, Michelle Stanistreet, Seumas Milne, Victoria Brittain, David Miller and Jeremy Corbyn.

Separate sessions will consider whether media coverage serves the military or the public, Islamophobia and humanitarian interventions.
