Book Description:
|
Terrorism and the news media share a symbiotic relationship: both command attention, deliver a message, and shape opinion. Current research indicates that terrorist incidents are among the most often used lead-in stories on television's evening news. The focus here is on how the news media cover terrorism in their reporting. Over 600 entries are divided into three areas: understanding terrorism, terrorism in the electronic media, and terrorism in the print media.
