Abstract

The Israel-Palestine conflict has long been a headline seizer. All over the world, news media has covered the issue extensively and with much vigour. Indian media has also been instrumental in providing the conflict a reasonable amount of coverage. It is expected from news media not to take sides, and more so in reporting war and conflicts; and report objectively, that is, to report the occurrence as it happens. However, media around the world are blamed for not covering the conflict accurately and objectively. There have been innumerable number of complaints to media for being cockeyed in their coverage of the conflict, and not raising fundamental, but highly significant, questions. This paper makes an attempt to find out how Indian media covered the Israel-Palestine conflict. Using both quantitative and qualitative techniques, the study analyses the coverage of two leading Indian English newspapers, viz., the Times of India and the Hindu.
