Abstract
The domination of all international news flows by the four western wire services has led to a qualitative as well as quantitative “imbalance” in the news coming out of the Third World. Only a quarter of the news that goes on the wires of the international wire services emanates from, or deals with, developing countries, although they make up nearly two-thirds of humanity. The imbalance, whatever is the theoretical argument, is clear. Narinder K. Aggarwala proceeds from this premise to suggest ways and means of striking an acceptable balance in the flow of information. One of his major suggestions is that developing countries set up a Third World News Agency, manned by Third World Staff and run with a great degree of professionalism without being a propaganda organ for the Third World governments.
