This study explores the dearth of extensive coverage on child abuse in print media, highlighting its global impact and the intricate relationship between news reporting and instances of abuse. Employing a qualitative research design, it draws from primary and secondary sources, including a content analysis of English and Urdu dailies. The findings reveal a substantial underreporting of child abuse cases, diminishing public awareness of the issue's severity. The interviews with reporters and editors further underscore three key obstacles to comprehensive coverage: the prevalence of unreported cases, inadequate government support, and capacity limitations within media outlets. The study advocates for collaborative efforts to address unreported cases, enhance media-government partnerships, and overcome resource constraints, thereby promoting a more thorough coverage of child abuse in print media.
