This research paper finds whether complexity of language affectthe circulation of Indian English Newspapers adopting the quantitative study with survey method. The sample size chosen for the study is 239 out of 500 where regional language newspapers were excluded.

Accordingly, it would be beneficial for citizens to obtain information on various transportation issues easily through newspapers. However, the issue has been little investigated in Japan. Therefore, this study sought to ascertain the current state of trend news reported, to create a suggested format for newspaper companies to report transportation issues, and to develop recommendations regarding how the government uses the medium of newspapers to disseminate transportation news. News articles related to transportation in a national newspaper, a regional newspaper, and an American newspaper were extracted and compared with regard to the number of articles published on transportation issues.

It has been found that millions of people are deprived of their benefits due to the exclusion from a wide range of information and knowledge, which can improve their lives. Print media is a traditional media and also one of the basic forms of communication. The strength of print media has been derived from its experience during the freedom struggle where the print media played a significant role in social emancipation, reform and amelioration. It is important to understand that print media includes newspaper, weeklies, magazines, monthlies and many other forms of printed journals. Thus, there is a remarkable contribution of print media in providing knowledge, transfer and proliferation of information.

II (Nov. 2015) PP 47-54 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Media and Development in Society: Continuity and Challenges Dr. Malik Zahra Khalid, Dr. Aaliya Ahmed, Dr. Sabeha Mufti Sr. Asst. Professor, Sr. Asst. Professor Media Education Research Centre, University of Kashmir Associate Professorm Media Education Research Centre, University of Kashmir Abstract: Development has become the global ‘civil religion’, since the past 40 years- and a battle cry for all nations - rich or poor, strong or weak. It is a long and complex evolutionary process-more a process of social change rather than merely generation and accumulation of material resources. Scholars have proposed various theories and models while development agencies set various goals for the development of nations and some of the theories have failed to yield results and new theories that emerged have tried to offer solutions to speed up development. The positive role of development has been recognized in third world countries because information dissemination plays a key role in bringing a social change among the receivers. Researchers have accorded priority to diffusion of information to the receiver through interpersonal and mass communication channels. The paper aims to provide an insight into continuous role of media in the process of development and the challenges faced by the contemporary media therein. Keywords: Development, media, information, change I. Introduction The media, with specific reference to the collective entity of newspapers, radio, television and the Internet, are important in shaping the development process of a country.

    Media History Monographs 16:2 (2013-2014) ISSN 1940-8862 Speculating “National”: Ownership and Transformation of the English- Language Press in India During the Collapse of the British Raj Deeptanil Ray Jadavpur University ABSTRACT The imminent collapse of the British Raj in India following the Second World War marked the formal entry of Indian big business speculators into the English-language newspaper business. It was more than a transfer of ownership from British to Indian hands: it merged the Indian speculators’ cravings for respectability, their becoming editor-proprietors of newspapers published in the colonial language of power, with a desire to expand the frontiers of what essentially were city-based dailies. Recording its disaffection with the overtly nationalist histories of the Indian press, this article outlines the historical circumstances in which the newspaper business in India functioned prior to the entry of the Indian big business speculators. It concludes by delineating the horizons of expectations of the English dailies in India conceiving “national presence” in the soon to be post-colonial future. ©2013, Deeptanil Ray Speculating “National”: Ownership and Transformation of the English-Language Press in India During the Collapse of the British Raj With the end of the Second World War, singly, two and a quarter centuries after the the press situation in the geographical zone yet first newspapers appeared in print in the to be marked and territorially designated as the Indian subcontinent, specific histories of the

Shivarudrappa, 2Dr. K. Puttaraju 1PhD Scholar, Department of Communication, Central College, Bangalore University PK block, Palace Road Bangalore -560 009 2Professor (Retd.), Department of Communication, Central College, Bangalore University PK block, Palace Road Bangalore -560 009 ABSTRACT: That the global print media industry is in a period of dramatic upheaval and the transformation has catapulted umpteen changes in the way which news is processed and circulated. The advent of New media has contributed both positively and negatively to the print media industry. During the past decade, the growth of digital technology has led to the burgeoning of on-line and mobile communication technologies. Traditional definitions of news are challenged by these new and emerging technologies, especially those that demand faster responses or reconstitute traditional work values, practices and processes. This paper examines key discussions occurring in relation to three issues currently affecting the news media both globally and locally they are: apparent disconnection between the media and their public; decline in circulation and readership; and the increasing role and influence of new technologies on print media. These issues were addressed through an examination of the current status of Karnataka regional newspapers in relation to a number of areas including: circulation; the use of information technologies, in particular websites; and how technologies might be used to foster public discussion in the process connecting geographically isolated publics and creating new readerships.] KEYWORDS: Print media, Digital technology, new media, Circulation, readership, disconnection.
