Ranjona Banerji: Let's examine the media's role in the destruction of India
"We are now told that "India's brave men" have been rescuing "Kashmiris". If there were floods in Bengal, would the headline read, "India's brave men rescue Bengalis"? Tamils? Gujaratis? Rajasthanis? How does India work for TV? Is Kashmir part of India or not? Or is it only about the subtext? Which as far as one can understand the petty mind of an Indian news anchor, might read like this: "Because there is a separatist movement in Kashmir, Kashmiris are inherently traitors to India. Kashmiris throw stones at the Indian Armed and Security Forces. Kashmiris can be Muslim. Kashmiris can be terrorists. Kashmiris can be pro-Pakistani. Therefore when the Indian Army conducts rescue operations in Kashmir, it is rescuing "Kashmiris" and not Indians and they do not deserve this help," writes Ranjona Banerji
