Is our media helping the terrorists win?

I think the issue is that in the aftermath, the attention is entirely focused on the devastation. I'm not saying it shouldn't be, but when you aren't seeing the life goes on afterwards it provides a much more fear laden image. It shows a victory for the terrorists, that they accomplished their goal in creating that fear. I can't tell you how many times I heard in the media that Paris had essentially shut down over the weekend, but that was not the case in reality.
