In the master’s thesis, we will analyse reporting on terrorist attacks on the news programme Dnevnik on Televizija Slovenija. In the first part, we will present theoretical base and define key concepts for analysis as terrorism, Islamic terrorism, connection between terrorism and media, influence of television and media, as well as news frames. Next, we will present the methodology we will use or our analysis. This will be followed by news analysis of six selected terrorist attacks, which are: Utoya 2011, Halle 2019, Christchurch 2019, Barcelona 2017, Strasbourg 2018 and Berlin 2016. We will perform analysis on four levels - syntactic structure, script structure, thematic structure and stylistic structure. We will analyse the first news which was broadcasted on the news programme Dnevnik regarding a selected attack on the day of the attack, one day after and two days after the attack. We will conclude our thesis by discussion where we will compare the results of the analysis and answer the research questions.
