ROLE OF MEDIA IN COMBATING TERRORISM
 
ABSTRACT
This research project investigated the role of media in the fight against terrorism. The study employed both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies in order to clearly establish the relationship therein between media and the fight against terrorism. The study will begin to answer the question as to whether media plays a catalytic role in entrenching terrorism and whether media coverage of terrorists' activities is geared towards meeting ethical journalistic standard of unbiased reporting. In order to answer these questions, this study examines the concept of terrorism as well as different factors that account for its sustainability in terms of publicity that is offered by different media channels both print and electronic. Additionally this study attempts to link the acts of terrorism to sensationalization of media reporting and desire to make profits. Overall, it shows that the media and terrorism have traditionally embraced a symbiotic relationship that impede efforts against counter terrorism and that such a role may fundamentally alter the content and context of news. This at times exerts a distorted influence over both public opinion and official decision making. The central thesis of the study is that the media has a major role to play in moderating their reportage on terrorist activities and/or acts by ensuring balanced, unbiased and factual analysis of events as they unfold. In the light of the findings, the study recommends among others a close working relation between media and government. Accordingly in cases of terrorists incidences timely information from the government must be provided to avert distortion and over- exaggeration of attack events. Public education and creation of awareness is also important.
