Abstract

Media and religion have formed an unexpected nexus that has started shaping the politics of the world. Religion was also losing considerable influence within its own confines, at the same time losing influence over politics, the economy, and the workplace. This could be the reason behind the general disinterest in media portrayed in the realm of religion and theology. Religion may play a role that neither our journalists nor our foreign policy analysts anticipated. The topic of religion has always been difficult for journalists to cover. Since the majority of journalists lack a religious background, there is a general concern among reporters, publishers, and editors that issues including religion will always be divisive. This phenomenon of marrying media and religion for political purposes has borne some truths. The fundamental one is that the institutions that want to be active in the public sphere today must be present in the media, and certain religions will win and others will lose in this conflict. The fact that the same stories appear on many channels at the same time implies that the motivating factor here is a competitive hurry to conform with the ruling party, rather than a desire for market supremacy. Even when news reports are separately sourced, a number of key participants have a de facto habit of prioritizing the prevailing narrative. This is only one example of a pattern that has now become normalized and has highly dangerous ramifications for India's media independence.
