Abstract :
The campaign of terror being waged against Nigeria and its residents by the Boko Haram sect has concomitantly attracted elaborate coverage by the Nigerian mass media. The media space granted this terrorist activities has rekindled the ever perennial debate about the association between media coverage and audience reception. This empirical investigation was conducted to determine the relationship between print media coverage of terrorist acts in Nigeria and Federal Capital City, Abuja, residents’ reception of these reports. Findings showed that while respondents are cowed by the intensive print media coverage, demographic variables, save for education, did not play any role in this regard. Results further showed that the reportage has, however, not undermined the social and religious routines of the subjects. In all, residents of Abuja did not ascribe the intensified level of terroristattacks to print media coverage.
