Abstract (EN)

The more mass media (media technology) develops nowadays, the more it becomes difficult to control information space in the world. Especially, there is no opportunity to trace dancerous videos, photo materials and records on social media. But, it is impossible to skip this problem only referring to globalization process, because if not to prevent this dangerous phenomenon, it can expand and infect all society. The above – mentioned problem occurs and develops in the Internet space. To be more precisely, manifestation of global terrorism is also promoted in mass media. That is, terrorism promotion is made on separately taken websites and social networks. Therefore, in-depth study of this problem is very important aspect. According to this, we decided to investigate this problem and tried to find out answers to questions of interrelation of society and mass media. Today, this subject is topical in such countries as the USA, England, Germany, Italy and Spain. Moreover, when there were terrorist attacks in these countries, all mass media were trying to make sensational news without paying attention to contents, video and photographic materials. Also a lot of discussions are held between journalists and experts about criteria of broadcast of terrorist attacks. On one hand, representatives of mass media justify themselves by telling "we do our job". On the other hand, experts refer to scrupulousness of such types of news and warn journalists that their "news can easily will turn into terrorism promotion". However, in reality, broadcast of such types of news has an important role for both parties: for terrorists and representatives of mass media.

This consider the emergence of such materials in media as a victory. Therefore, we made an analysys and investigated this subject. Keywords: Media, terrorism, terrorism promotion
