Abstract:
The indigenous peoples continue to face different issues which include defending their ancestral land and resources, and struggling for self-determination through the preservation of their culture and tradition (Molintas, 2004). And as they continue to assert their rights, the media remains to be one of the avenues for the indigenous peoples to pursue their struggle (Sapkota, 2013). The media is expected to become receptive and responsive when it comes to the issues faced by the IPs. Contrary to this expectation, indigenous peoples continue to experience discrimination in the media through misrepresentation in media packaging, therefore, resulting to racism and stereotyping (Brown, Myers & Wilkes, 2010; & Plater, 1993); and the inaccessibility of the media itself (Roberts, 2006).
