Media is the buzz word of the era of globalization, in fact, the rapid expansion of term and the concept of present form of globalization have been made possible only through the information revolution throughout the world. It has been widely recognized that media can play a substantial role in promoting and disseminating information and are key players in the social and economic development of women. Therefore, media largely reflects the life styles, socialization patterns, participation levels, cultural boundaries, political maneuverings, religious manifestations, educational standards, social hierarchy, and of course, society images of any given society. Globalization is a multi-faceted, multi-disciplinary topic in its broadest reaches. It includes not only economic topics, but also political, social- cultural and ideological ones. Political scientist, James Rosenau, defines it as a label that is presently in vogue to account for peoples, activities, norms ideas, goods, services, and currencies that are decreasingly confined to a particular geographic space and its local and established practice.
