The main topic of this labor was to analyze the headlines of the 24sata.hr portal which are related to the concept of terrorism, and whose role in the media is extremely important. Also, the analysis includes photographs that are considered equally important because they can be manipulated, but also cause fear among media consumers. The aim was to see if the portal pays attention to visuality and what images it uses when reporting on a topic that is a major problem of the 21st century. During the research, the method of content analysis and discourse analysis was used, and the paper also explains the stylistic figures that most often appeared in the titles. Namely, they are used to decorate a particular title and to achieve the best possible play on words. What was crucial to show in the paper is that there is a certain connection between the media and terrorism. Terrorist attacks are presented as breaking news that arouses great curiosity among the audience. On the other hand, this topic can cause insecurity and fear in the reader. The paper explains the concept of terrorism, as well as its history. Furthermore, the theoretical framework of online media is presented, as well as the characteristics and features of the title. The research also shows whether terrorist news is presented as sensational and whether there is a so-called clickbait concept. Terrorist events are shocking enough, so there is no need to overemphasize certain words or put photos of victims. Media coverage of terrorism should be without dramatization and without presenting unverified information, but in Croatia, there are still no guidelines for reporting on this topic.
