This study investigates the reporting of insurgencies in the five
South Asian countries including Afghanistan, India, Pakistan,
Nepal and Sri Lanka. One elite newspaper from each of these
countries was selected for a period of five years—January 2013
to December 2017. The researcher applied content analysis
technique by operationalizing war and peace journalism
indicators as expounded by Johan Galtung and others. The
researchers found that the five national insurgencies are
predominantly reported in the war journalism approach. The
selected press adopted nationalistic and elitist perspectives and
ignored options that could promote peace and reconciliation.
The findings of this study are quite in line with the existing
scholarship that media remain jingoistic and support their
governments when deviant groups challenge the security
apparatus
