The fundamental problematic question of working from this perspective is the instrumentalization of media, which is seen as modern front, by the terrorist organizations through the news of suicide attacks to affect broad masses, (fear, intimidation, panic, polarization), to shape societal memory, to make its voice heard on a global scale. In this context, the fundamental thesis defended in the study is that the form and limitations of reporting the actions of suicide attacks in the media determine the shaping of perception of fear and risk in the collective memory.
