Yesterday, nine Kashmiris were allegedly killed in the valley because of the
police firing.

Today, in the Bombay editions of the Times of India and Hindustan Times,
there is an identical image of a policeman being attacked by a Kashmiri.
There are no images of any Kashmiris being killed or attacked by the police.

The Urdu daily Inqilab, however, shows a Kashmiri injured by the police
firing.

Is it simplistic to say that all press is communal?

Is the poser itself simplistic?
