【 摘 要 】

The media —specifically television— is identified as one of those responsible for the growing concern about insecurity. It is argued that if it exaggerates the enunciation of police news, with interests or intentions of generating fear, they are sensational. But, how do individuals interpret media when narrating ‘insecurity’? Which social senses overlap in decoding media narratives about urban crime? This article covers tensions around how media information about insecurity overlaps individuals’ daily lives and the audience’s diffrent perceptions, classification of information, cognitive interest, and credibility when the media represent crime. The perspective leading us was a historical and cultural understanding of the news consumption phenomenon, which sought to account for the diffrent ways of appropriation of media discourse regarding ‘insecurity’.
