  • A Case Study of Sri Lankan Media
    C olonials, bourgeoisies and media dynasties: A case study of Sri Lankan media. Abstract: Despite enjoying nearly two centuries of news media, Sri Lanka has been slow to adopt western liberalist concepts of free media, and the print medium which has been the dominant format of news has remained largely in the hands of a select few – essentially three major newspaper groups related to each other by blood or marriage. However the arrival of television and the change in electronic media ownership laws have enabled a number of ‘independent’ actors to enter the Sri Lankan media scene. The newcomers have thus been able to challenge the traditional and incestuous bourgeois hold on media control and agenda setting. This paper outlines the development of news media in Sri Lanka, and attempts to trace the changes in the media ownership and audience. It follows the development of media from the establishment of the first state-sanctioned newspaper to the budding FM radio stations that appear to have achieved the seemingly impossible – namely snatching media control from the Wijewardene, Senanayake, Jayawardene, Wickremasinghe, Bandaranaike bourgeoisie family nexus. Linda Brady Central Queensland University ejournalist.au.com©2005 Central Queensland University 1 Introduction: Media as an imprint on the tapestry of Ceylonese political evolution. The former British colony of Ceylon has a long history of media, dating back to the publication of the first Dutch Prayer Book in 1737 - under the patronage of Ceylon’s Dutch governor Gustaaf Willem Baron van Imhoff (1736-39), and the advent of the ‘newspaper’ by the British in 1833. By the 1920’s the island nation was finding strength as a pioneer in Asian radio but subsequently became a relative latecomer to television by the time it was introduced to the island in the late1970’s.

Retraction and apology made and pleaded— Whether absolute defence — Mitigation of damages. Innuendo—Duty of trial Judge when innuendo pleaded—Award of damages— Circumstances when appellate Court will increase award of trial Judge. H e ld : (1) That where in an action for defamation'the plaintiff has established that the words are defamatory of him p e r se a n d /o r by innuendo, animus injuriandi is presumed because a man is taken to intend the natural consequences of his act. Once presumed the burden is shifted! to the defence and a defendant cannot discharge this burden by merely stating that in his own mind he had or could not have had an intention to injure. He can only do this by taking one of the specific defence known to Roman Dutch Law. The appellant in the present case, although he had in the District Court pleaded b o n a fid e mistake as a defence, did not raise the issue nor make any attempt to establish it and he therefore failed to discharge the burden that the law cast upon him.
