Umm what about Virilio? The intro of the reader discusses notions of the hyperreal and what not.

The Art of the Motor deals explicitly with the media and tele-images.
 And the first two parts of Speed and Politics might be relevant (although perhaps a little dated).

            What is becoming increasingly interesting is the lack of serious philosophical writing on terroism. I've spent the past few days searching for interesting writing on terror and terroism and actually there is remarkably little.

            That is not to say there is nothing on state terrorism and the terror related to the state and power. Just very little that i've identifed that directly addresses those hopeless acts of terror inflicted on a human population, such as the 911 event.

            Thoughts and suggestions anyone?
