British, American, South African and pan-Arab TV showed less interest in Israel in May. Coverage of Israel in European outlets was rather positive - quite unlike the tone of coverage of Israel in the long term. US network news on the other hand focused on the renewed allegations against Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.
