Abstract

The topic of Islamism is obviously connected with fears and is therefore particularly relevant for tabloid journalism. Against this background, a qualitative content analysis of 249 articles on krone.at was conducted to investigate how one of the most widely read tabloid newspapers constructs the dangerousness of the Islamist scene in Vienna on the Internet. Using an analysis grid that distinguishes between tabloidization on the level of focus and style, a superordinate frame of danger in the sense of the frame definition according to Entman was identified. In this way, the reporting constructed an Austrian affectedness of terrorism, as well as an alleged Islamist penetration of society. The Islamist scene was object to maximum moral discreditation through an emotional depiction of its brutality. A loss of political and social control and the spread of Islam were presented as the cause of the problems portrayed. This led to treatment recommendations, on the one hand to control Islam more strongly by the state and on the other hand to be on the alert. Emotionalization, visualization, sensationalism and reduction of complexity turned out to be tabloid journalistic features placing Islam in an undifferentiated terrorist context.
