Description: Dialogue occupies an important space in the media whether in written, audio or visual forms. This book examines the art of media dialogue in the Arab satellite channels, focusing on Al Jazeera’s experience. In order for television dialogue to succeed in achieving the desired effect, it needs to apply a set of techniques that talk show producers should take into account in order to achieve their communication goals. The face-to-face communication between the journalist and the guest is one of the most important and far-reaching forms of communication on the human psyche. It includes verbal and non-verbal capabilities in expressing opinion, delivering ideas and positions through signs, in addition to gestures and symbols carried by messages exchanged between the two parties to the dialogue. 70.
