Face of Corruption in News Media – A Report on their Coverage (2011)

‘Face of Corruption in News Media’ confirms that “petty corruption involving  vulnerable  sections  of  people”  are  yet  to  become  a  concern  of  news  media.   The priority is for scams and scandals rather than for systematic issues and correctives that need to be pursued. This monograph, based on CMS Media Lab study, is with the hope that it enables news media to take on a “different approach” in its coverage of corruption to make people pro-active.  The coverage should be such that it also helps “prevent” scams.
