Abstract:
This thesis explores the use of the terms jihad, mujahedeen, and jihadists, in relation to the coverage of Afghanistan. The focus is on how the New York Times, a major journalistic actor, participated in changing the connotations of the terms in different political contexts from 1987 – 2015.
