The study is a qualitative text analysis of Swedish news reporting on the Terror attack in Paris 2015 and the train bombing in Madrid in 2004. The analysis is based on articles published by Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter. The purpose of the study is to investigate how Swedish news reporting looked at the terrorist attacks in Paris 2015 and Madrid in 2004. By examining articles from Dagens Nyheter and Aftonbladet, we investigate how media logic narrator techniques apply to news reporting and whether the criteria for news evaluation are used. The study also aims to investigate whether there are any differences between news reports 2004 versus 2015. The articles are analyzed on the basis of various themes consisting of: perpetrator, victim, event, media logic and theory of news values. The results showed that 2015 news reporting was more comprehensive than news reporting 2004. 2015 reporting gave more space to the event than 2004’s news reporting did. The news reporting of Madrid's train bombing tended to focus on whether the Basque separatist movement ETA or the al-Qaida terrorist network were guilty. In connection with the terrorist attack in Paris, the perpetrators are described in more detail.
