News media can play a huge role in our perceptions of gender-based violence and justice. It can influence not only society, but also impact systemic change as we saw with the Justice Verma Committee. We sit with activist and communication consultant Asmita Ghosh to talk about the impact of sensationalist coverage of gender-based violence, the monster theory of perpetrators, what PLU stands for in newsrooms and more.
Special thanks to Uttanshi Agarwal for lending their voice for the poem of the episode.
Trigger Warning: Mention of assault, rape, mental, emotional, physical and institutional violence.
Be sure to listen in to the next episode, out on 11th March, 2021.
