The Media's Ability to Reinforce Politically Constructed Identities

And what is there to be made of the media that continues,collectively to "solidify" the broadly constructed identities of the Israeli/Jew and the Palestinian/Muslim?  Is it because it is the easiest/simplest option in a news cycle that is perpetual? Is it a reflection of what the media thinks of the consumers of their work?

And then what influence does the media's rigid constructs of othering in this matter have on the global and Israeli and Palestinian discourse (s)...on this matter?
