Hindi dailies like ‘Dainik Jagran’ and ‘Dainik Bhaskar’ fed into and benefitted from the Hindutva movement in the 1990s. Now, newspapers in other languages, including Malayalam and Tamil, seem to have hit upon the same over-the-top majoritarian formula.
In the vast ocean of language newspapers, all happily flying the Hindutva flag, the Kannada daily @prajavani, from the Bangalore-based @DeccanHerald group, has the most understated front page, lead headline and photograph, among 48 newspapers surveyed today. But only just.
The class-toppers in their unbridled tom-tomming of majoritarianism—in their words, photos, headlines, colours, and near-complete absence of anything that approximates to critical thinking—continue to be Hindi newspapers.
