Abstract

The notion of globalization transformed the growth and trajectory of television news media where the growth in media systems in one country influenced the evolution in the neighboring country for providing a competitive discourse especially in times of mediatized conflicts. The role of media has been pivotal right from the beginning of the conflict between India and Pakistan on the issue of Jammu and Kashmir where the role of news media has transformed over the period of history and growth in one country exerted a considerable impact on the other where both the media systems have pushed other in a globalized sphere. The paper traces the evolution of television news media in India and Pakistan with a focus on Jammu and Kashmir in order to compare and contrast how television news media became central vehicle of information war and how the process of globalization effected the growth of television news media in both the countries.
