[rti4empowerment] Mini Research papers on “Paid News and Indian Journalism” Invited

 

Mini Research papers on "Paid News and Indian Journalism" Invited

 

We all know that Paid News is being cited as one of the greatest threats to Indian journalism and the related socio-political fabric. While previously an individual journalist or two occasionally used to implant stories on monetary allurements but the phenomenon of Paid news is said to be making some of the owners of important newspapers take money at one place and forcing the journalists to write intended and targeted stories in the Newspapers. 

 

Our organization, Institute for Research and Documentation in Social sciences (IRDS) is making a small contribution in this field by inviting all those concerned to send Mini research papers on the topic "Paid News and Indian Journalism." The Research Paper can be about any particular aspect of Paid News or it can also take the subject in its totality. It needs to cover the topic correlating Paid news and today's Indian journalism. One can also send the Research paper on the basis of one or a few specific examples.

 

The last date for sending the Research paper is 30th April 2011. It can be sent either through email at irdslucknow@gmail.com , nutanthakurlko@gmail.com or mailed at
