Abstract and citation online via search of Ebscohost.com. 1 page., This article deals with the deliberation of development journalism as a subfield of development communication. It further examines the connection between public journalism and development journalism. The development journalist "should be an active community participant in social change. He or she cannot be a neutral observer who adheres to objectivity. The journalist must relate development to people and focus on relations and the totality of concrete life situations. He or she must go well beyond economics and bring out the inherent drama in development, democracy, and participation."
3 pages., Suggests that Nepalese media need to review their policies with regard to social concerns and national problems, using development journalism that "focuses on the needs of the poor, the deprived and the marginalized and emphasises their effective participation in developmental planning."
