Abstract
Social media is an accessible tool of information and they can also provide instant news about any aspect of life. This study is aimed to find out the relationship between social media prosumers and fear of war. It is assumed that those presuming more information about the Pulwama incident will have more fear of war. A quantitative research methodology was adopted, while the survey technique was applied for data collection. A purposive sampling method was used and data was collected from 50 prosumers of Twitter and Facebook. Data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings supported the hypotheses of the study that prosumers having presumed more war information have strong feelings of insecurity. It is also supported that higher-income people feel insecure more than the poor in such kind of situation.
Key words: Pulwama Incident, social media Prosumers, fear of war
