Description

About the Book

Media firms should give representation to the people from backward and marginalized communities and they will bring their concerns in media. Dr. Iris Koileo’s study of the representation and impact of the media in the coastal area of Thiruvananathapuram under a minor research project funded by the University Grants Commission is a path-breaking one.
