pluralization of the media no sufficient qualitative pluralism has been
brought about in it.

Conclusion

It can be stated with conviction that the media diversification or multiplication of
their number also have paved the way for pluralistic differences in media content

only if media houses of the state are compared with that of the private sector. The
conclusion which can be drawn by an investigation into in what manner 6 TV

channels within a period of 10 days broadcast a single event is that the content of
none of those channels contained a pluralistic character with a qualitative value.

Further, on the other hand, it must be added that when attention is paid to alternative

media associated with the internet, they contain a more pluralistic content. The
present observation is restricted merely to the television media.
