Abstract: Postmodernism may be viewed as an era in which the mass media was integral to an immense proliferation of artistic styles that projected the ideations of postmodernism and its several movements. This study examines the historical development of postmodernism as an imaginative intellectual interest group throughout the 1960 and 1970’s. An attempt is made to critically assess both positive and negative effects of postmodernism on the mass media in addition to the latter’s influence (s) on Islam within the context of postmodernism.
