Episode 9 of Counternarrative was held together with Asif Bin Ali, Atlanta-based political analyst and Doctoral Fellow at Georgia State University, and Muktadir Rashid, Special Correspondent at Bangla Outlook and Bangladesh Correspondent for The Irrawaddy.
Mr Asif Bin Ali, a former faculty member at North South University and seasoned media researcher, offered a compelling analysis of how media narratives shape political perception and public discourse. Mr Rashid, renowned for his fearless on-field reporting of the Rohingya crisis and cross-border tensions, provides rare insights into conflict journalism, human rights, and the erratic geopolitics of the region.
Together, they explore the intersections of truth, media, and political accountability in an era of disinformation and regional unrest.
