Where is the media heading? Times are such that today even journalists admit that the

mainstream media are on its deathbed! However, we wouldn’t agree if someone were to say that journalism is dead or that it’s dying. Journalism is in fact thriving, though its contours have changed (for the better, should one say?). But the pertinent question here is why is death staring at the mainstream media. Who is to blame, that is if someone ought to be blamed. As journalists we are required to answer these basic questions, for we are duty-bound to ask questions and also find answers to the questions we ask.

It’s easy to blame the management of newspapers and TV channels for the rot that has set in today’s media. However, 1 feel, apportioning blame on the management is to a great

BKkvXv 2015

Those at the helm in Indian newspapers are often chosen tor their policing capabilities and not because they are good journalists. They are seldom good writers, or good at rewriting or editing, nor do they have imagination or understand what news is. I have often felt that such people should be recruited to the police force as their place is not the newspaper office, where sensitive, intelligent and knowledgeable men and women should sit.

(17) extent a convenient mode of escapism. Why do I say that? To answer this, we would have to ask a number of questions first. Why did Indian journalists covering the Nepal earthquake behave so shamelessly? Why do journalists in this country have to be flagwaving jingoists like our politicians? Is it our job to please the powers that be, even if it means being ridiculed? The Indian government was quick to react with relief efforts sending in military planes with supplies and men to help just after the devastating quake struck our tiny northern neighbour on April 25. According to Times of India, our country had over 700 personnel conducting search-and-rescue efforts on the ground, followed by China (168), Bangladesh (140) and the US (120). Hordes of Indian journalist too landed in that country apparently with the aim of doing a thorough job. However, the job turned out to be too thorough for comfort that the non-stop coverage was criticized for being “insensitive” and often barbaric. TV reporters were accused of “shoving microphones at suffering victims,” according to Times of India. As per that newspaper, the reporters even “intruded into family cremations and questioned grieving relatives.”

Such rude and impervious behaviour naturally drew criticism. Facebook and Twitter had the rude message #GoHomeIndianMedia trending on them. Derisive jokes and tweets were the order of the day. And it was not Nepalese alone who cried horse, bashing the insensitive and jingoistic Indian media, people in this side of the border too joined in, not finding the coverage amusing or charitable. “Your media and media personnel are acting like they are shooting some kind of family serials,” Nepalese writer Sunita Shakya wrote in an open letter to the Indian media. “If your media person can reach the places where the relief supplies have not reached at this time of crisis, can’t they take a first- aid kit or some food supplies with them as well?” he asked. What prompted such over enthusiasm? Competition, of course. The TV crew of all channels were keen to be seen as the first to reach certain places, the first to cover a certain news, etc. And they were reportedly battling it out with the ‘others’ to be the first among the lot to film the rescue operations undertaken by the Indian Army. The Hindu reported that one TV reporter had told its correspondent that “too many journalists had kept making trips on the Army chopper”. And according to this guy, “I also got the sense last week that because of all this coverage, many Nepalese had started feeling that India is acting like some sort of a big brother.” The media was accused of being triumphalist, as if they were there right behind a conquering Army. Prior to this it was only the Western media that had been accused of such conceited behaviour “while covering events in developing countries”. Here I come back to my earlier questions: why did the media behave as BKkvXv 2015

(18)

it did? Surely no management would have urged these reporters to behave as they did in Nepal. However, the “demanding” TRP-driven editor would have made their lives miserable had they not behaved as they did. These guys sitting in their swanky offices in big cities are there to bring in advertisement revenue to the company they work in. He/she is not worried or sensitive about what happens on the ground as long as the newspaper sells or the TRP rating of his/her channel goes up. For this his/her company pays him/ her cartons of money (often much more than all his staff put together). Hence, they more often than not behave like the supervisors in old tea plantations in British India. Yes, he/she is often just a glorified “mastry”. Those at the helm in Indian newspapers are often chosen for their policing capabilities and not because they are good journalists. They are seldom good writers, or good at rewriting or editing, nor do they have imagination or understand what news is. I have often felt that such people should be recruited to the police force as BKkvXv 2015

their place is not the newspaper office, where sensitive, intelligent and knowledgeable men and women should sit. However, not all is lost. The ‘mastrys’ in this profession and the media houses they represent would soon find themselves in the dustbins of history. A new kind of journalism is taking over. The social media is powerful enough to bring you news and views from any part of the world at any time of the day. Hence, people are going to prefer them to the antediluvian outfits pedalling archaic journalism. And journalism students should be happy that they can become true journalists on their own without having to depend on media houses. Venturing out would however require a lot of guts and gumption. Yes, it’s a brave new world. .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Power of direct communication

Narendra Modi’s victory Roy Mathew

he use of one to one communication contributed significantly to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s election campaign and image building. The power of mouth to mouth or interpersonal communication has long been evident, historically. It played a major role in our independence struggle and the defeat of Indira Gandhi after the emergency. What made Mr. Modi’s interpersonal communication different was that he used technology effectively to reach persons whom he could not directly reach. Thus he achieved a form of interpersonal communication through media, achieving a sort of direct interactivity through social media. The interactivity of social media helped him to create the impression that he was directly dealing with people and not addressing them over public address systems, radio or television. Modi and his campaigners used all channels such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Slideshare, Flickr, and Pinterest to overwhelm these channels with positive images about Mr. Modi, in the process suppressing negative images related to Godhra riots, abandoning of his wife Jashodaben and the like. The use of modern technology like holograms at his 3D rallies, video conferences for his Chai Pe Charcha and Google Hangouts helped him shed the image of someone with communal and conservative attitudes of an old generation with one of a tech savvy person. He also addressed hundreds of rallies across India. Depending on one’s political perspective, one can say that Mr. Modi used direct communication to bring down a corrupt government that was facing policy paralysis, or that he used it to give false hopes and wrong notions in his pursuit

for power. However, it remains a fact that the Congress failed to counter the communication offensive. Even when Rahul Gandhi opened a Twitter account recently, it was in the name of his office, taking away any semblance of assumption that he was directly interacting with people. His forays into tribal hamlets and the like has only marginal effect and it is doubtful that any meaningful one to one communication takes place on such occasions. On the other hand, AAP leader Aravind Kejriwal uses one to one communication with surprising results. If it was not for his direct approach to the people, his apology about his demitting office in a huff would not have won acceptance. .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Media Freedom @ and India

o you think media celebrate absolute freedom in our country? Unfortunately answer would be a big NO, according to Indian constitution argues. It is as always a burning topic, even in the verge of Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 68th Independence Day. The Indian Constitution, while not mentioning the word press , provides for the right of freedom and expression (Article 19(1) a). It is not offering any special privilege to media freedom as such but can be treated as a fundamental right of every citizen. This constitutional aspect is evident from the words of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, Freedom of Press is an Article of Faith with us, sanctified by our Constitution, validated by four decades of freedom and indispensable to our future as a Nation. The Indian Press has a long history right from the times of British rule in the country. The British Government enacted a number of legislations to control the press, like the Indian Press Act, 1910, then in 1931-32 the Indian Press (Emergency) Act etc. In the Post-Constitutional BKkvXv 2015

Era, there is a change in the outlook. Every citizen has got fundamental right to live with dignity and respect and a right to privacy guaranteed to him under Article 21 of the Constitution. Both Article 19(l)a and Article 19(l)g (which provides for freedom of profession, occupation, trade or business) are offering every provisions to citizens for freedom of expression and speech, but it is not for union of citizens. However this right is subject to restrictions under Article 19(2), whereby this freedom can be restricted for reasons of â&#x20AC;&#x153;sovereignty and integrity of India, the security of the State, and friendly relations with foreign States, public order, preserving decency, preserving morality, in relation to contempt of court, defamation, or incitement to an offense. Who threatens media freedom? There is a change in the ownership pattern that as from chain to conglomerate ownership. It is also suggested that the editors and journalists cannot have adequate freedom of collecting and disseminating facts and offering comments as they

(21) are under the pressure of the capitalist owners. India’s ranking in a global press freedom index has fallen significantly in the past year, putting it behind countries such as Liberia, Kyrgyzstan, South Sudan and Albania. There are different incidents where media freedom is being curtailed. In the recent past (2001), in the Tehelka Case, The portal Tehelka.com was forced to shut down completely and its journalists were continuously harassed as the journalists exposed the scam in the defense ministry involving Ex-Defense Personnel & Central Government Ministers. In April 2003, The Hindu ran two articles criticlizing Jayalalitha’s actions of expelling and jailing opposition members from the state legislature. Jayalalitha retaliated by filing 17 criminal defamation cases, and ordering 5 senior editors of the newspaper, to be jailed for 15 days each. In August 2007, members of the right wing political party Shiv Sena vandalized the office of Outlook when it published an article where the party leader was listed as ‘Villain’. More recently, in April 2012, Jadavpur University professor Ambikesh Mohapatra was arrested for circulating a cartoon of Mamata Banerjee. Do you think media freedom should be controlled? In this context the statement made by Markandey Katju, former Press Council Chairman is significant, that as Press Council should be renamed as Media Council with adequate teeth. In words of the Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi, “The role of journalism should be service. The Press is a great power, but just as an unchained torrent of water submerges the whole countryside and devastates crops, even so an uncontrolled pen serves but to destroy”. Recently, when Mumbai was under terror threat in 26/11 the media acted irresponsibly by telecasting live; it had given the terrorists getting detailed information about the ground situation that they would not normally have got. In April 2009, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram was addressing the media at a press conference a journalist threw shoe at the minister on protest of acquittal of a Congress leader accused of leading Anti-Sikh riots in 1984. The journalist named Jarnal Singh was a reporter of Dainik Jagran, a local newspaper. Later on he apolo-

gized to the Union Home minister for his act. This was one of the most condemnable acts which showed the ugly side of the press. There are three pillars of a democracy that as the legislative, the executive & the judiciary.

The press acts as the fourth pillar of a democracy. The press has played many significant roles in delivering justice, public welfare etc. Especially there are quite a lot of incidents where media acted responsibly including; Jessica Lal’s case, Priyadarshini Mattoo’s Case, Aarushi Talwar’s murder case and Ruchika Girhotra’s case. Many authorities have held that the Right to Freedom of Speech conferred by Article 19(1) of the Constitution is adequate to protect the freedom of the Press. Judicial decisions have however made it clear that the Fundamental Rights are conferred only on citizens and not on associations of citizens. In the present times, no newspaper or other periodical can normally be brought out by individuals; it can only be brought out by corporate bodies. Moreover, it has also been held by Courts that, in view of the limitations put under Article 19 (2) etc., pre-censorship can be imposed on newspapers even when the country is not faced by an Emergency due to external aggression or internal rebellion or similar circumstances. .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Representation of the media in Bollywood Films

he portrayal of media personalities in Indian mainstream films in general and Bollywood films in particular can rarely be called authentic. In fact, sometimes, commercial compromises distort and dilute the image of a media professional – journalist or reporter from the print media or media professionals in the electronic media within cinema. How authentic are these portrayals? Are journalists, reporters, news-readers, anchors and interviewers really as cheap as they are shown in films? Or, are there genuine reporters committed to the three objectives of ethical journalism – objectivity, accuracy

and integrity? Most films give a more or less realistic view of journalists as professionals and how their ethical values have taken a beat in an environment of corrupt practices. But sometimes, the general picture one comes away with is not very pleasant. In the recently released Bajrangi Bhaijan (2015), we are introduced to a small-time reporter of a small town. His name is Chand Nawab (Nawazuddin Siddique) who is struggling for his “Bariking News” for a Pakistani paper. His entry gives a new direction to the story and to

BKkvXv 2015

(24) and upright editor of a daily newspaper called New Delhi Times. The film depicts how, in the end, the two leading political parties - the Establishment and the Opposition, use him as an agency to get their work done but he does not suspect their motives of using him as a pawn and in the end, join hands behind his back and he is made a scapegoat.

what a little-known incident can do to the career of a small time reporter. With his story about Bajrangi and Munni, the little mute girl he is trying his best to restore to her family in Pakistan, Chand Nawab joints the search for his long-desired story and becomes an overnight hero in journalistic circles. Among the very few films that have portrayed journalists in a positive and strong way is Romesh Sharma’s directorial debut New Delhi Times (1986) that fetched Shashi Kapoor and cinematographer Subrata Mitra their only National Awards besides the Indira Gandhi Award to the director for the Best First Film of a New Director. Shashi Kapoor is the very honest BKkvXv 2015

This hard-hitting political drama was hit equally hard by Indian distributors and television because they refused to take on the film for either theatrical release or television viewing. Vikas Pande, the new editor who arrives in Delhi from Ghazipur in Uttar Pradesh to New Delhi, uncovers corruption, murder, and bribery in high office. When a politician is killed, a journalist discovers that a member of parliament had the man assassinated. More shocking news are revealed when this member of parliament it is learnt is an underworld gangster. As the editor digs deeper, the complicity of higher-placed politicians comes to the surface, which leads to riots in one town and an attempt to suppress his story. The Tinnu Anand directed Main Azaad Hoon (1989) is an Indianised and tweaked version of Frank Capra’s Meet John Doe (1941.) Though this was focussed on the unusual presentation of Amitava Bachchan as an unemployed, homeless and unlettered man who roams aimlessly from place to place in search of food, the film paid equal importance to journalists and journalism. When Subhashini (Shabana Azmi) is threatened with a sack because the editor has changed and so has the management, she creates a do-gooder from the grassroots and begins a column on the socially good acts to save society done by the fictitious “Azaad.” The

(25) incisive column, a critique of political maneuverings becomes so famous that she had to look for a real person to fit into the mould of “Azaad” because the readers demand to meet him. She finds the man she is looking for – a man aimlessly drifting on the streets with his equally bum friend and immediately christens him “Azaad.” We never get to know his real name. Slowly, when she realises that Azaad is being made a pawn in the vested interests of the politically ambitious and dictatorial editor, she changes her stance and decides to follow ethics. The editor (Manohar Singh) offers another dimension of a journalist’s character who is manipulating the news, the newspaper and his editorial staff to become prime minister one day. These two polarised faces of the media is presented realistically in this otherwise commercial film. There is third journalist, who is a stooge of the editor, following him and his dictates like Mary’s Little Lamb. But this man too quits his job and the editor when he is fed up with the way the editor has turned him into a human version of a pet dog. This was a hard-hitting film too and picked up at the box office much after it was released. Main Azaad Hoon is a powerful statement on how images can be created, manipulated and even destroyed by the media by journalists with vested interests.

Madras Café (2013) directed by Shoojit

Sircar and produced by John Abraham is perhaps the only film in recent times to feature a war correspondent. The film is set in the late 1980s and early ’90s, during the intervention in the Sri Lankan civil war and assassination of Rajeev Gandhi when he was the PM of India. The film won the National Award for Best Audiography for Nihar Ranjan Samal for location sound recording and Bishwadeep Chatterjee for the sound design. Major Vikram Singh (John Abraham) is an Indian Army Special Officer appointed by RAW to head covert operations in Jaffna shortly following the Indian peacekeeping force’s forced withdrawal from the city. During the course of his investigation, he meets Jaya Sahni (Nargis Fakhri), a Londonbased British war correspondent, who wants to reveal the truth about the civil war, and in the process he uncovers a conspiracy to assassinate “a former Indian prime minister. Jaya is a nononsense, committed war correspondent assigned by her paper to cover the Sri Lanka civil disturbances. As she joins in the investigation, there is a sharing of views but there is no romance and no sex in the relationship. The relationship is enriched by the control with which Nargis essays her role complete with her British accent, pragmatic attitude and guts. Jaya’s character was inspired by many war correspondents, including Anita Pratap, according to the director.

Mumbai Meri Jaan (2008) is an excellent portrayal of television news channels using news as sensational and titillating when it concerns even a massive tragedy like the July 11, 2006 Mumbai train bombings. Rupali Joshi (Soha Ali Khan) as a leading journalist of a television channel is assigned to cover the bomb blast in trains in Mumbai live. She finds that her fiancé has died in the blast. She then becomes the subject of the television channels who chase her for BKkvXv 2015

(26)

exclusive stories about her life with her fiancé and so on. Her grief is augmented when the news channel she works for tries to exploit her story for ratings. She is so traumatised by the shock that lies hidden within her own profession that she quits her profession. Her personal tragedy and its aftermath changes her perception about what being a television journalist means forever. Kundan Shah’s Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron (1983), now considered to be a cult film portrayed media and media personalities in a shady light not conducive to a positive image of journalists in cinema. The story has a character named Shobha (Bhakti Barve) who is a doubledealing lady editor of a newspaper with the double-entendre name of Khabardar. It has two meanings. In Hindi, khabardar means “Danger” and it also means “do not dare” and in this film, the newspaper suggests both! The editor is ready to do anything to get a story that will raise the circulation of her paper including fake stories. Through its hilarious style, Kundan Shah weaves into its narrative some slapstick comedy. The massive Y-generation that has bloomed in the world of the internet, You-tube and blogs, have watched, downloaded and replayed the film many times. Just one site shows a hit of 1, 25,000-plus hits and there are many others you can hit and watch the film in with bigger hits. But it is Peepli Live (2010) that takes the cake and has it too. It is one of the most scathing critiques of journalism in contemporary India. Natha, the younger of two farmer brothers BKkvXv 2015

burdened by debt, living in a fictitious hamlet called Peepli is persuaded by his older brother to commit suicide so that his brother and their families can get the advantage of the Re. One Lakh dole the government has promised. But before he can actually commit the act, this news gets reported by Rakesh Kapoor (Nawazuddin Siddique), a local reporter from Peepli. One ITVN journalist keen on filming Natha’s death is Daytime Presenter, Nandita Malik. She joins Rakesh and takes desperate measures to interview Natha and his family. However things get trickier when rival Hindi news channel, “Bharat Live” finds out about Natha and Peepli. The news channel clashes with ITVN and each tries to film Natha’s death in its own way. Written and directed by journalist-turned filmmaker Anusha Rizvi and produced by Amir Khan Productions, Peepli Live is a film that unmasks the underside of contemporary journalism, most of it not pleasing to the eye, ear or taste. By and large, journalists as a collective group of professionals are displayed in a rather poor light when they rush with their mikes and cameras inside any film to take a byte from everyone and anyone at the drop of a hat. It makes for a very poor and derogatory representation of journalists on celluloid. This must change and I wonder why journalists do not raise their voice against such derogatory representation of the entire group. One may sum up by saying that the credibility of journalists, especially television journalists, has fallen over the years and this gets reflected again and again in our films.

The writer is a freelance journalist, author and film scholar based in Kolkata. She has authored 17 books and contributed to many compilations on cinema, family and gender. Email: shoma.chatterji@gmail.com

If the answer to that question is to be settled by my word against yours, only confusion will result. Even if an editor has managed to keep his crowded skeleton cupboard away from public scrutiny, the people who need to know, know.

The Soviet /Communist Theory The Soviet Communist Theory

(not very active since 1990) evolved during the early years of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR, established following the Bolshevik revolution in 1917) and which no longer exists since 1989. After 72 years of dominance, the socialist republics of Eastern Europe and Central Asia disintegrated into independent republics, with Russia still as the leading socialist country bearing most of the glory of socialism, and the Republics of Georgia, Ukraine etc. declaring independence from Russian domination and the CIS (Common wealth of Independent States) in Central Asia, also independent from the sphere of influence of Russia. Poland, Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria and other countries also came out of the political influence of Russia. With fall of Russia, many socialist countries in its sphere of influence came out of it. Communist sympathizers do not agree that communism has vanished from the face of the earth; they believe that socialist BKkvXv 2015

The socialist/ communist theory of the press is that the media are a collective agitator, propagandist and educator in the task of building an egalitarian society. economic thinking will remain for ever in different parts of the world. With the re-organization of European and Central Asian republics and their independent stance, the idea of communism has vanished as a viable economic proposition, according to Western capitalist economists. The world has now become unipolar, they say, and capitalism as an economic philosophy has won. There are many who question this concept. Be that as it may, let us not

(47) The Soviet theory held an important position in the post-World War II years and it formed an essential ingredient of the post-War anti-communist communication theories propounded by the West, particularly the U.S. Two sources that deal with the Soviet theory are: Mass Media in the Soviet Union (by M. Hopkins, New York: Pegasus, 1970) and Brian McNair’s “Media in PostSoviet Russia: An Overview, European Journal of Communication, Vol. 9 (2), 1994, pp.115- 135, and his Glasnost,Perestroika and the Soviet Media, London: Routledge, 1991. Another important source, Siebert etal., Four Theories of the Press, already referred to.

take sides but examine what the essence of the Soviet/Communist theory of the press was. The socialist/ communist theory of the press is that the media are a collective agitator, propagandist and educator in the task of building an egalitarian society. This view was first propagated by V. I. Lenin, the founder of the Soviet system. When Lenin died in 1924, Joseph Stalin took over the reins of the USSR. Stalin used the media to impose his will on the people. As a ruthless dictator, he found the media a convenient tool to manipulate the people, and justify his actions. This theory claimed that a people’s government could not but be people- friendly, peopleoriented and aimed at people’s overall welfare and hence it could not err. The Soviet press/ media could not but be the people’s own establishment and run by the people, it could not be anything but people’s own, aimed at people’s welfare and interests. Anything critical of the government or anybody raising his or her critical voice against would simply be anti-people and unpatriotic.

The main characteristics of the theory can be condensed into “the subordination of the media to the Communist Party” considered ‘the only legitimate voice and agent of the working class.’ Although the theory does not support free expression, it suggests a positive role for the media in society. It emphasizes culture, information, and socioeconomic development as worthy causes for the media. Communist parties may accept the theory in toto, but other political parties will not hail it as heroic, especially because the Soviet system has disappeared, And yet, blind hatred of a theory may not appeal to free-thinking individuals. Since China is the only claimant of communism these days, the Soviet theory no longer enjoys much enthusiastic support from anywhere, especially because China opposes capitalism only when it affects its national interests. In other words, there is no international communism under Russian influence now. See you later, communicator!

Examining Identity in Sports Media Heather L. Hundley, Andrew C. Billings SAGE 279 Pages; Price: ` 4150.00 Including the work of top sports communication researchers, Examining Identity in Sports Media explores identity issues, including gender, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, and (dis)ability, as well as the intersections within these various identity issues. This co-edited, twelve-chapter book investigates how various identity groups are framed, treated, affected, and shaped by a ubiquitous sports media, including television, magazines, film, the Internet, and newspapers. While other books may devote a chapter or section to issues of identity in sports media, this book offers a complete examination of identity from cover to cover, allowing identity variables to be both isolated and intermingled to capture how identity is negotiated within sports media platforms. Far more than a series of case studies, this book surveys the current state of the field while providing insight on future directions for identity scholarship in sports communication. BKkvXv 2015
