Pope Leo urged journalists on Monday to highlight the suffering caused by war, cautioning against news reports that risk sliding into propaganda by glorifying conflicts or serving as “a megaphone” to amplify the voices of those in power.
In a meeting with broadcasters from Italy's TG2 television news program, the pope made a direct appeal for reporters “to show the face of war and tell it through the eyes of the victims, so as not to turn it into a video game.”
