Mobile Reporting and Its Effectiveness in Covering Crimes Against Women in India

Abstract

In the digital age, the proliferation of mobile technology has transformed the media landscape, offering unprecedented opportunities for news reporting and public engagement especially in crime against women. This study explored the effectiveness of mobile journalism in covering crimes against women, using a survey of 100 respondents. The research aimed to understand perceptions regarding the timeliness, comprehensiveness, accuracy, and overall impact of mobile journalism in this context. Results indicated that mobile journalism is largely valued for its ability to provide timely updates and enhance the visibility of these crimes, with a strong consensus on its accuracy. However, opinions on the comprehensiveness of coverage and its role in raising public awareness were more varied. The study underscores the significant role of mobile journalism while highlighting areas for further improvement to enhance its effectiveness in reporting on crimes against women.
