"This study deals with how the Kurdish websites deal with issues related to the city of Halabja, as (media coverage) or (news treatment) occupies a wide area of media studies, and helps to understand the nature of media interaction by different media outlets with different events.. The tragedy of Halabja, which is the chemical attack by the Iraqi regime in the spring of 1988, received (relative) media coverage from various local and international media outlets, The media interest during the event in 1988 was modest and did not represent the scale of the tragedy that befell this city, and that was because the Arab and international countries were supporting the former Iraqi regime, as well as the absence of international satellite channels and websites at that time, but despite that, a group of journalists, as well as Iranian media and diplomatic agencies, were able to convey the echo of this crime to world public opinion. This study is an attempt to examine how is the media coverage by three Kurdish websites relating to various issues related to the city of Halabja, through three main investigations the study reached a set of results. The international media at that time did not respond to this crime in the required manner and did not cover the event in a way that reflects the extent of the crime. And that the Kurdish websites publish topics and news related to the (Halabja) issues through the journalistic form of the news in the first place, and that the political issue of the issues related to Halabja occupies the first place of the Kurdish websites’ concerns. In the first place, and the three websites published most of their topics related to Halabja accompanied by a picture."
