They increasingly have an important role in explaining issues and presenting them to public view and opinion, especially issues concerning national security. The importance of the role media plays across all different facets of modern life has become obvious to most people, as has the potential danger in it. When it comes to education, culture, economy and security, studies show that media has become a prominent aspect of the modern age and an effective tool in forming a public and societal conscience. Within a society and in making sure public opinion is formed in accordance with relevant knowledge about its security and well-being, the media serves a crucial role. In order to fulfil this role correctly, media must have authority and publishing responsibility, as well as being guided by professional assets, in order to effectively contribute to achieving a set of positions related to the individual and society, especially what connects to combatting extremism and terrorism, and dealing with their consequences.
