Abstract
Western scholarship on media coverage of foreign policy issues
illustrates that media follow the government line when there is policy
certainty or elite consensus on issue, on other hand, media present a
critical view on foreign policy related issue(s) when there is policy
uncertainty or exist differences in circle of (political) elite (Bennett,
1990; Robinson, 2000). This study contently analyzes the media
coverage of the foreign policy issue at the time of violent conflict in
Indian held Kashmir in two major news websites Dawn.com and Indian
Express.com, owned by the leading media groups of Pakistan and
India. Consistent with the existing literature on media and foreign
policy, this study not only evaluates the nature of media coverage on
the basis of policy certainty but also explains the significant
relationship between violent conflict and media approach in the two
south Asian neighboring countries, Pakistan and India.
