The story has seen widespread coverage across both newspaper and television media. This report will examine one television presentation and two newspaper presentations of the story and analyze how these differ in the way that they portray the information, the impressions they give, their focus, and the effect of the medium itself on the content. The television report was aired on CBS News, titled Terrorist cell phones link Pakistan to attacks. The two newspaper treatments were by the New York Times and the USA today titled Pakistan’s spy agency is tied to attack the U.S. Embassy, and Admiral accuses Pakistani agency of backing terrorists respectively.

Neil Postman was an American critic as well as being an author and media theorist. He produced several books, with several concerning the idea of mass communication being used to share ideas, how this has declined and the role that television plays. Finally, the results will be compared to the claims of Neil Postman, who proposed that different media had the potential to shape the news that we see. He argues that the method in which news is communicated can substantially impact what is communicated and that television news is not an effective method of providing information, as it does not provide a complete or informative picture of what is happening. The results from my comparison agree with this, with the television news producing a more sensationalized picture that left out some key information, while the newspaper reports went into more detail about the causes and effects of the event.

The CBS broadcast of the story was titled Terrorist cell phones link Pakistan to attacks, however, the cell phones were mentioned only at the start of the three-minute report. The attack on the US embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan was carried out by a group known as Haqqani, who have ties to the Taliban. While all those involved in the attack were killed, information from their cell phones, including calls made and times, was able to be recovered.
