Medias gestaltning av högerextremism och islamism online

Abstract
The initial purpose of this study was to answer an overall question and two related sub-questions, based on framing theory and Martha Crenshaw's theory of terrorism through a combined qualitative and quantitative content analysis where the empirical material has been developed from 40 articles from the four largest digital newspapers in Sweden. The overarching question can be answered by saying that Islamist terrorism and right-wing extremist terrorism are not framed in the same way, neither in terms of representation nor the way articles are formulated. And after all, terrorism is terrorism, whether in the form of Islamism or right-wing extremism and should therefore be portrayed as an equally great threat in the same way in the media.
