This article discusses the symbiotic relationship of mutualism between mass media and terrorism. Whether we realize it or not, acts of terrorism in the homeland are still interesting and economically valuable news material in front of the mass media. On the other hand, on the part of terrorists, the news about terrorist acts actually becomes a strategic campaign area to show their existence. The research uses a qualitative approach to narrative analysis method. The results of the study are www.okezone.com and www.tribunnews.com placing the terror terror events in Medan Mapolrestabes as interesting and economically valuable news material. The style of the news flow is arranged with a choice of tense, dramatic and sensational nuances of words. In addition, the display of photo and video illustrations shortly after the explosion also aims to display as if the news of the explosion event is true, not engineering, objective and valid. The combination technique of choice of words, story line, placement techniques and the size of photos and videos all aim to make the emotions of the reader participate dissolved in a tense situation as the situation at the scene of the explosion. The practice of compiling this kind of news flow is called, as Jean Baudrillard's practice of simulation. The practice of simulation through the practice of compiling news lines and the touch of visual image technology will eventually create conditions of hyperreality. Namely the conditions between reality will be mixed with the pseudo so it is difficult to distinguish which is original and fake. Next, the airing of a list of victims of unknown origin will actually give birth, as Pierre Bourdie calls it symbolic violence. That is, the practice of violent symbols aimed no longer at the physical target but rather conscious thoughts. Symbolic violence in the appearance of the victim list really has the potential to create traumatic feelings towards the families of the victims.
