摘要

本文旨在研究媒体报道与暴力极端主义之间的关系,以解释尼日利亚由此产生的道德和安全问题。设计/方法/方法本文借鉴了安全和伦理文献,同时采用了包括深度访谈和焦点小组访谈在内的多方法方法。内容分析还依赖于媒体专家对恐怖主义、安全和道德的采访。调查结果显示,记者在言论自由、框架、内容选择和个人安全等方面面临问题。再次,本文认为公众意识的因素和相关性问题也推动了媒体的过度报道,其中道德和安全必须发挥约束作用。本文的第一个限制是无法采访一些恐怖分子,并了解他们对大众媒体报道他们活动的反应,因为没有人准备好承认自己是恐怖分子,指出一个人是恐怖分子是一种危险的现象。也不是所有的记者都做好了采访的准备,因为他们不是为学术练习做准备,而是为把秘密情报卖给像政客一样可以用巨额资金购买的人等可以赚大钱的任务做准备。实际意义政府和恐怖分子双方都面临生命威胁。在他们的报告中偏袒一方是对另一方的冒犯。由于尼日利亚的政治局势,他们在言论自由方面的人权也受到侵犯,政府面临不安全的局面,阻碍了媒体发表报道的自由。此外,在道德问题受到压制的地方,由于缺乏新闻自由,它使政府在全世界都不受欢迎。原创性/价值据作者所知,这篇论文是新颖的,因为它是第一个媒体专家参与媒体报道和暴力极端主义在尼日利亚与安全和道德问题有关的研究尝试。

Media and ethical issues in terrorism reporting and the security implication in Nigeria
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the relationship between media reporting and violent extremism to explain the ethical and security issues emanating from it in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach This paper draws on security and ethical literature, while a multimethod approach consisting of in-depth and focus group interviews was used. Content analysis was also relied upon from the interviews granted by media experts on terrorism, security and ethics. Findings Findings revealed that journalists are facing problems in areas of freedom of expression, framing, content selection and personal security. Again, this paper opines that elements of public awareness and issues of relevance also push the media to excessive reporting in which ethics and security must stand to play a restraining role. Research limitations/implications The first limitation of this paper is the inability to interview some terrorists and know their reaction to mass media reporting on their activities because nobody is ready to own up that he is a terrorist and to point to an individual as a terrorist is a dangerous phenomenon. Again, not all reporters are ready for interviews because of the fact that they are not prepared for the academic exercise but rather for assignments that can yield fat money such as selling secret information to those who can buy them with huge amounts of money like the politicians. Practical implications There is a threat to life on both sides of the government and terrorists. Favoring one side in their report is an offense from another side. There is also a violation of their human rights in freedom of speech as a result of the political situation in Nigeria where the government is faced with insecurity that hinders media from freedom of the press to publish reports. Moreover, where the ethical issue is suppressed, it makes the government unpopular all over the world because of the lack of press freedom. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is novel as being the first of its kind where media experts are involved in research attempts on media reporting and violent extremism in relation to security and ethical issues in Nigeria.
