COVERAGE BY MEDIA IN DELHI ELECTION


The Delhi’s election result cleared AAP as the decisive winner of the nation’s capital. But, how has media performed its role in this election? That’s the question one should have a look upon to know the actual credibility of media. Comparing with last time, this time, media has shown great enthusiasm while covering Delhi. Thanks to Political incidents that led media cover this election efficiently.

Also, the media was at stake and that results in high coverage for Delhi. But just like previously, media centered on the political personalities. Media never bothered to think issues related to state. There are issues like proper education, poverty, Hospital issues etc, which failed to acquire media’s attention.

Not, with television news only, but even radio and newspapers followed same track lay down by Television. They never bothered transcribing real issues of the state to public. Baring few news agencies, almost every news organization were found highlighting political personalities. Media, in this election, was only involved in image building.

 During election period, you could easily gazed party’s promotional work in the front of newspaper. Yet, if you have to point best out of three then print has done fare well as it balanced promotional work with newsy items. Moreover, Media even failed in clearing facts.


Media got huge thrashing recently for its lack of correct news formation. That’s the problem it requires clear remedy as their stake are getting undermined.
