Media Map seeks to work as a bridge between media
education and media practice to enrich education with
field experience and practice with academic knowledge
and research. Media Map, is a monthly publication which
can best be described as a quasi research journal. Media
Map seeks to promote a debate on ethical and moral
questions in the world of media, especially news media, in
relation to critical issues in polity, economy and society.
It is a platform for cross currents of thinking, perception
and ideas on media and its content emerging from our
pluralistic diversity. Media Map is addressed to media
students, research scholars and teachers as well as to
those media practitioners who consider media as an input
in development and not a means of entertainment alone.

Media Map Covers Media Stories; Major reporting Events; International media scenario; Problems/politics of Indian press; News from the world of media education; Media seminars/Communication Research; Dilemmas/Issues of ethics and propriety for media; Political Issues as reported by media; Comments on political developments; Current issues relevant to media public; Geopolitical issues and international affairs intelligent media users must know; Economic issues as reported by media; Issues of media ownership and vested interests of economy and media.

With so many media maga¬zines around why a new jour¬nal on media? This is a ques¬tion which can be legitimately asked of us. Our answer is that we are not a journal. We are voice of a movement -a voice against trivialization of media. It is a voice against a misplaced notion that a news¬paper is a commodity and since newspapers are a prod¬uct and news a commodity, editors and journalists who process news can be treated as workers and traders. 

In short Media Map wishes to be a bulwark against the aber¬rations that have corrupted the Indian media scene and have undermined the glorious history of Indian press. 

In a very determined way we seek to make Indian media commit itself to promote the interests of aam admi and address itself to critical issues of polity, society and economy. We know that the task we have given ourselves is tough and daunting. We also know that we are a feeble small voice. 

Yet we believe that small is beautiful. We are sure that as we move on we will be joined by many others who, like us, are in quest of independence of thought and freedom of spirit undiluted by murky compromises. (Excerpts from first edit)
