Resumen

The current conditions of journalistic activity demonstrate the importance of the ability to work properly in times of conflict and instability. The peculiarities of such work determined the purpose of the article - to study the problems of conflict-sensitive journalism as one of the trends of our time. This goal was achieved through the use of scientific methods. First of all, we are talking about the method of content analysis of professional scientific literature, the use of methods of generalisation and systematisation.

The results of the study show that for objective coverage of events, it is recommended to use the idea of a ‘just’ war, to carefully assess the opinions and views of different segments of the population regarding the war, not to be in the position of propagandists, to focus on the coverage of the process, to demonstrate the interests and concerns of the warring parties, avoiding the understanding of war as a concept of struggle for the same ideas. As shown in the article, it is important to avoid ‘hate speech’, which is the basis for the development of discriminatory policies. The conclusions note that journalistic work should not be understood as entertainment or selfish practice.
