Sažetak
Summary The culture of fear is a phenomenon fully emerging after the terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, although it was present in mass media before. International studies have shown that, afterwards, media coverage became completely imbued and preoccupied by fear, which was used by political elites to maximize control over society and to restrict civil liberties. The authors aim to verify their hypothesis regarding the promotion of the culture of fear in Croatian media, primarily the print media. Hence, random samples of titles and texts in Croatian daily newspapers were studied through quantitative and qualitative analysis. Two national daily newspapers were selected for empirical analysis – Jutarnji list and Večernji list – during three different time periods before and after September 11, 2001. The results indicate a multiple increase of news related to the culture of fear in the Croatian press in relation to events in the USA.
