In the decades following India's opening to foreign capital, the
city of Bangalore emerged, quite unexpectedly, as the outsourcing
hub for the global technology industry and the aspirational global
city of liberalizing India. Through an ethnography of English and
Kannada print news media in Bangalore, this ambitious and
innovative new study reveals how the expanding private news culture
played a critical role in shaping urban transformation in India,
when the allegedly public profession of journalism became both an
object and agent of global urbanization. Building on extensive
fieldwork carried out with the Times of India group, the largest
media house in India, between 2008 and 2012, Sahana Udupa argues
that the class project of the 'global city' news discourse came
into striking conflict with the cultural logics of regional
language and caste practices. Advancing new theoretical concepts,
Making News in Global India takes arguments in media scholarship
beyond the dichotomy of public good and private accumulation.
