Select a recent major news event and compare its coverage in two news outlets of an Indian language. Analyze how language influences the framing of the story, the choice of words, and the overall narrative
The news event I will analyze is the tragic train accident that occurred in Odisha on June 2, 2023, claiming over 300 lives. This devastating incident received widespread media attention across India. I will compare how it was reported by the Hindi news channel Aaj Tak and the Bengali news channel Zee 24 Ghanta.
Right from their initial breaking news alerts, the language used by the two channels set different tones. Aaj Tak labeled it the "Odisha rail durghatna" (Odisha rail accident), while Zee 24 Ghanta referred to it as the more intense "Odisha rail kando" (Odisha rail tragedy/horror).
This simple difference in terminology - durghatna vs kando - framed the incident through contrasting lenses. The Hindi channel's labeling was direct and literal, while the Bengali outlet immediately invoked a sense of profound calamity through that one charged word.
