    1 Revue de presse Semaine 43/2018 The Economic Times of India 22/10/2018 IndiGo has asked the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to remove restrictions on routes where its Pratt & Whitney engine-powered Airbus A320 Neo aircraft can fly and enable it to operate this plane on longer sectors. DGCA has so far not allowed A320 Neos with PW engines to be flown on routes where they are more than an hour away from a nearest airport at any point during the journey, due to the snags in Pratt engines. The US and European aviation regulators have given their nod in the last two years. As a result, the PW-powered A320 Neos with Indian carriers — IndiGo and GoAir — do not have “extended diversion time operations” (EDTO) clearance. “This clearance is required for aircraft with two or more engines to operate routes where the nearest suitable airport to make an emergency landing or divert to is more than an 60 minutes away at any point during the journey. The PW powered Neos in India have to fly on routes where an alternate landing airport is within 60 minutes away,” said a regulatory official. According to PW, its A320 Neo engine “has been granted 180 minute ETOPS eligibility by the European Aviation Safety Agency.” Now, IndiGo has sought EDTO clearance for the Neos as it prepares to make make use of the extended range of these planes to fly them to farther places. IndiGo did not comment on this issue. It also did not say what all routes it would operate the Neos on once and if EDTO clearance is given to them.

The Author(s) 2016 change: An international Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav comparison DOI: 10.1177/0263774X16680818 epc.sagepub.com Ralf Barkemeyer Kedge Business School (Bordeaux), France Frank Figge Kedge Business School (Marseille), France Andreas Hoepner University of Reading, UK; Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden Diane Holt University of Essex, UK Johannes Kraak INSEEC Business School (Bordeaux), France Pei-Shan Yu University of Reading, UK; Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden Abstract We present an international comparison of broadsheet newspaper coverage of climate change. We employ two complementary theoretical lenses, multiple streams theory and institutional theory, to explore why climate change has become headline news in some countries but has received comparatively little coverage in others. The study utilises a worldwide sample across 41 different countries for the year 2008, covering 113 leading national broadsheet newspapers. A cross-sectional regression model is used to identify whether and how a range of contextual factors impact coverage of climate change. To a certain extent, a country’s direct exposure to climate change and the measures that have been taken to combat global warming influence the position of climate change on the media agenda. Crucially, however, we identify a number of contextual factors that impact climate change-related media coverage in different national contexts. In particular, we find a significantly positive relationship between regulatory quality and levels of media coverage.

Newspaper readership at the national level is about 16.5% (Media Research Users Council, ​ 2018). “From literacy to political consciousness, urban dominance, history, sociology, ​ demography and even geography – it all plays a role" (Cris, 2018) Kerala people love ​ newspaper reading. Kerala has good statewide coverage of broadband and mobile phone. As per the CyberMedia Research report, Kerala leads among other states in mobile phone penetration with 65% (Thomas, 2018). The popularity of mobile phone and Internet have ​ ​ influenced the social life of Kerala people.

  • Magazine Journalism
    What is Magazine? The Word Magazine is coined by the Edward Cave. It is derived from Arabic word ‘makhazin’ which means storehouse- all bundled together in one package. A magazine can be explained as a periodical that contains a variety of articles as well as illustrations, which are of entertaining, promotional and instructive nature. It generally contains essays, stories, poems, articles, fiction, recipes, images etc. and offers a more comprehensive, in-depth coverage and analysis of subject than newspapers. Most of magazines generally cover featured articles on various topics. Magazines are typically published weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly. They are often printed in colour on coated paper and are bound with a soft cover. In a simple, we can say that ‘the better the visual narrative of the magazine, the more it will appeal to its specific audience’. The publisher’s purpose for a magazine is to give its advertisers a chance to share with its readers about their products. Magazine Journalism Magazine Journalism uses the similar tools as traditional journalism tools used for gathering information, background research and writing to produce articles for consumer and trade magazines. The cover story is the beacon in any magazine. The cover page quite often carries stunning headlines to facilitate a compulsive buying of the magazine. Vanitha : An Indian Magazine Vanitha is an Indian magazine published fortnightly by the Malayala Manorama group. Vanitha in Malayalam means woman. It was launched in 1975 as a monthly and later become fortnightly in 1987. Its Hindi edition was launched in 1997.

A survey was distributed to all journalists working for the three newspapers (38 of 205 surveys were returned for an 18.5% response rate). Although factor analysis results indicated that having a role in the development process was considered important by respondents, there was relatively little development news in the three newspapers. Further, the development news stories tended to emphasize politics and politicians, used sources associated with the government and its agencies, and avoided sources who took critical views of the development process in India.

  • Government Advertising As an Indicator of Media Bias in India
    Sciences Po Paris Government Advertising as an Indicator of Media Bias in India by Prateek Sibal A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the degree of Master in Public Policy under the guidance of Prof. Julia Cage Department of Economics May 2018 Declaration of Authorship I, Prateek Sibal, declare that this thesis titled, 'Government Advertising as an Indicator of Media Bias in India' and the work presented in it are my own. I confirm that: This work was done wholly or mainly while in candidature for Masters in Public Policy at Sciences Po, Paris. Where I have consulted the published work of others, this is always clearly attributed. Where I have quoted from the work of others, the source is always given. With the exception of such quotations, this thesis is entirely my own work. I have acknowledged all main sources of help. Signed: Date: iii Abstract by Prateek Sibal School of Public Affairs Sciences Po Paris Freedom of the press is inextricably linked to the economics of news media busi- ness. Many media organizations rely on advertisements as their main source of revenue, making them vulnerable to interference from advertisers. In India, the Government is a major advertiser in newspapers. Interviews with journalists sug- gest that governments in India actively interfere in working of the press, through both economic blackmail and misuse of regulation. However, it is difficult to gauge the media bias that results due to government pressure. This paper determines a newspaper's bias based on the change in advertising spend share per newspa- per before and after 2014 general election.
