Abstract
After the military defeats and the loss of the occupied territories, ISIS suffered a fundamental disturbance in the center of gravity of its power, and in this situation, it considered the media as a suitable platform for advancing governance. Accordingly, while moving his rule from the real space to the virtual space, he made the media the center of gravity of his power. This shifting of the center of gravity of governance has led to the revival of ISIS by attracting new forces through the management of their exclusionary perception and identification with the power of the media and finally, turning the attracted audience into a lone wolf and terrorist acts in Shiraz, Kerman, Moscow and other areas. The world has become The following article, with a qualitative approach and the foundation's data strategy, has tried to calculate the components and indicators of the power of ISIS in the center of gravity of the media; For this purpose, from the statistical population, all ISIS media productions in the four formats of photos, text, video and audio from Dabiq and Rumiyah publications from 2011 to 2016.
