Patterns of mass media in Pakistan Afghanistan bordering communities: A public perception analysis

Those who reside near the Pakistan-Afghanistan border in the Khyber,  Mohmand, and Bajaur agencies on Pakistan's side and in the Jalalabad  and Kunar provinces on Afghanistan's side are presumed to provide  some kind of trouble for one or the other border-sharing countries. The  reason for this assumption is not that the residents of these areas are  inherently troublesome; rather, it is the premise that these places are  ignored by mass media and communication networks on both sides of  the border. This study will focus on how different media outlets cover  and depict the Pak-Afghan border villages in order to test this notion. It  is also crucial to research the media and communication that border  communities are exposed to on a local, national, and worldwide level.  Furthermore, since microblogging is possible on mobile devices in  these regions, the growing importance of social media cannot be disregarded. This study will also examine how these populations  interact with the media in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The use of social  media (Twitter and Facebook) as well as print, electronic, radio, and  other media will be statistically studied throughout this study.  According to the hypothesis, communication gaps will be found in the  study and will have a direct influence on how border communities  behave.
