- Abstract
This study analyzes the frequency, prominence and category of development coverage in Pakistan, China and India; all countries forming an important region and carrying out development. Using the framework of Development Journalism, hypotheses related to development coverage and its prominence were tested through quantitative content analysis of development related news stories, editorials and articles in Dawn (Pakistan), Times of India (India) and People's Daily (China) from January 1 to March 31, 2016. The content related to development issues was analyzed in terms of frequency, prominence and direction of development coverage. The purpose was to compare and determine the importance of development related news stories, editorials and articles in these three countries. Study revealed that while the Indian newspaper covered development related issues most frequently, China's newspaper gave high prominence to development issues as compared to Pakistani and Indian newspapers. Pakistani press lacked both in frequency, prominence and lack of information related to development sphere.
