A study that looks at popular protest and how the media in "free Goa" responded to it, comments: "In Goa, the daily newspapers' editorial stances on various protest movements would tend to reveal a largely unfriendly attitude towards such actions. It is not perhaps coincidental that individuals and groups involved in protest issues in Goa have often felt that they have received an unfair deal from the media." This book chapter looks at protest and the media response to it in Goa over a three decade period, from the early 1960s to the 1990s.
