Thesis Abstract

This study aims to investigate the influence of media representations on public perceptions of crime and criminal behavior. The research will involve a critical analysis of media depictions of crime, including news coverage, entertainment media, and social media content. Additionally, the study will examine the ways in which media portrayals shape public attitudes towards crime, criminal justice policies, and perceptions of safety. The findings of this research will provide insights into the role of media in shaping public discourse on crime and inform discussions on media literacy and responsible reporting practices.
