This book is an attempt to show that the
theatrical and dramatic ways the media report terrorist acts encourage further
violence. It attempts to illuminate the interdependent nature of the
relationship between the media and terrorists, which should help explain or
expose the conventions and narratives the media adopt in reporting terrorist
acts. It is a research work and undertakes a deep study based on Case Learning
Model and suggests the ways in which the media should cover such activities and
defines the Do’s and Don’ts for covering such events. The Arab world is
considered as a menace by most of the western media who are reluctant to create
a balanced image of the Arabs and sometimes the heroes of today becomes
terrorists of tomorrow. It is quite necessary that the media should play a
balanced role and should try to give a balanced coverage of events to avoid
prejudice because they are no doubt the oracle of our time.
