The manipulation by means of the term terrorism and journalistic impartiality

Marcin Jewdokimow

In this article, I attempt to describe comprehensively a phenomenon of manipulation by means of the term terrorism. This problem is affected by the use of the term terrorism which is never neutral (a terrorist) and always implicates some moral opinion. Calling someone terrorist we condemn his actions and so we judge events instead of describing them objectively. This is a very important observation for the media's work which, calling indisctiminately after the politicans some acts terrorist's acts, become their propaganda's loudhailer.
