Contrast this with reports in English language dailies. HT, apart from a front-page report, dedicated more than half of page 2 to the event. TOI also put the event as the lead city story on page 2. These reports are more detailed and have many more voices from the event. It’s not a snippet but is presented as a major news event. This is perhaps because the English media is increasingly shaped by talking points on social media and the even being organised on social media could have a bearing on its coverage. Indeed its target audience today consumes much of its news from platforms like Twitter and Facebook. But does it also have something to do with the demography of the protesters?
