In this podcast, Professor Roberta Pearson from the School of American and Canadian Studies, discusses the fictional representation of terrorism in modern day television programmes and why more and more people are using fiction instead of the news to inform their opinions of world events. Professor Pearson considers the frequent engagement of modern audiences with such television series' as ‘24' and ‘Battlestar Galactica' and how these common cultural experiences should not be underestimated as a factor in affecting the way public issues are viewed.
