This article analyses the relationship between the London press and politicians in respect of the Indian Empire during the first two decades of the twentieth century. The gathering and transmission of news from the subcontinent is discussed, it being argued that structural constraints upon the supply of information facilitated its management by Government. Also investigated is the process by which the British Government sought to direct public expression on Indian policy. Techniques employed to influence news coverage are examined, particular emphasis being placed upon the prevailing system of control by means of personal persuasion and informal contact between journalists and politicians. The evolving rationale and methods of press control are accounted for by reference both to political developments in Britain and Europe and the resurgence of Indian radicalism. Focusing on the period 1917-22 permits us to gain insights into the circumstances affecting the scope of press influence, and to highlight, by means of specific examples, some major determinants of the extent and form of official news management. |
