Relevance:\u00a0<\/strong>Global media and issues associated with it<\/strong><\/h5>\n

News: <\/strong>There has been an increase in spreading the wrong information about India by the writers and editors of other countries.<\/p>\n

What are the issues with the articles being published?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

A report titled \u201cAn Analysis of Global Media Coverage of Events in India\u201d has taken an in-depth review of more than 3,000 India-related articles published by global newspapers.<\/p>\n

The have found a consistent pattern of emphasising political controversies in India with sensational headlines.<\/p>\n

These include keywords such as hate, fear, violence, riot, mob, Hindu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

This has led the negative image of India among its readers globally and it also shows that a small controversy India can lead to undesired result.<\/p>\n

These analyses show that there is an increase in the importance of India in the global news.<\/p>\n

The report also found that there has been an increase in the digital readership of these global media.<\/p>\n

For example,<\/strong> the Indian readership of New York Times increased by 22% while there has been decline in the global readership by 8%. This has been due to the controversial topics written in the newspaper.<\/p>\n

Further, global media is looking to India as a topic for its growth and they have also made digital investments for it.<\/p>\n

India\u2019s significance as a subject of global media interest can rise even further with India assuming the presidency of the G20 this December.<\/p>\n

What is the present condition of India in global media and what needs to be<\/strong> done?<\/strong><\/h5>\n

The present condition of India shows that India is far from establishing a strong global media voice that can stand at the equal level with the established global media.<\/p>\n

Therefore, a strong global media is needed to correct the wrong understanding of India democracy and stereotypical perspective of the socio-cultural diversity of India.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
