del.icio.us Digg It!  new Akiva Eldar wins journalism prize By Asaf Carmel tags: military correspondent  Haaretz's senior military correspondent, Akiva Eldar, was awarded a prominent journalism prize from a co-existence group in New York yesterday. The Eliav-Sartawi Awards for Middle Eastern Journalism are presented annually by Search for Common Ground, which promotes co-existence and conflict resolution in the region. The annual prize is granted for contributing to promoting peace in the region. Eldar shared the prize with Al-Hayat reporter Salamah Naamat, for an exchange of letters between the two - "Reaching Across the Divide" - that was published in Haaretz English Edition, East Jerusalem daily Al-Quds, and The Baltimore Sun. Advertisement Prizes were also awarded to Bassam Aramin, a member of Combatants for Peace who lost his daughter to a Border Police shooting last year, and to Gershon Baskin, a co-director of Israel/Palestine Center for Research and Information. "Media in the Middle East should be self-critical about its role in deepening the rift," Eldar said yesterday, "at a time when there are those like Salamah Naamat who yearn to hold an open dialogue with the Israeli side, without giving up what they see as vital interests and despite the high price they may pay."
