By reducing its consumption of traditional print publications & TV news, the audience is rejecting current content, which just promotes a personality cult.
Considering the behemoths that Alphabet Inc, Facebook, Netflix, Amazon and Snap Inc are today, it may be imprudent to expect the repeal of net neutrality to be a smooth sail.
There were 42 times security agencies resorted to internet shutdowns this year to control volatile conditions in eleven states. Is this the only way to restore peace during violent protests?
Going through their Instagrams and dissecting their ‘statements’ is not the astute political commentary you think it is—it is time for us to back off from targeting 20-year-olds.
Companies are borrowing more from banks and public. Economists say high capacity utilisation & growing new orders could set stage for renewed investment push by India Inc.
New Delhi has, in past, too, objected to Chinese construction activities in Shaksgam Valley. Work in this strategic region gathered pace after the 2017 Doklam stand-off.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
Mr. ketkar is honest in his expression of media, but the fact is, public in general, still they are acting like toddlers of democracy, unaware of their rights and responsibilities without knowing what they want.
Now I doubt our well educated journalists/medias do they know what they want? Are they concerned about our country’s future except very few including our politicians. God bless India and it’s voters.
Unlike print media, electronic media does not depend upon revenue generated from advertisements sourced from various government departments and corporations. Electronic media survives on advertisements garnered mostly from private sector. Private sector advertising budget is spent on the basis of TRP potential of a programme on a channel. It also depends upon location and perceived purchasing power of viewership. This explains higher volume of revenue generated by some of the private channels and poor show by DD. The channels espousing the cause of so called Secular Leftisr Liberal brigade need to introspect and find reasons for their lacklustre performance in garnering eyeballs. A few channels who are neck deep in the business of Modimania also need to be careful. Media duty is not only to pander to the prevailing public mood but also to educate
Media lost it credibility long back in 2014 when it took sides with govt glorifying it’s every tiny so called achievement and denying even the biggest achievements of the opposition. In trying to take sides and glorify certain individuals media has lost its very purpose .
The growing apathy and lack of trust in media, especially in TV is not good for a democracy which is also a developing nation. Fortunately people still have faith in the old print media such as Hindu, Outlook etc. But when the people stop believing in democracy and its 4 pillars, people will step into streets. That is what caused Arab Spring and similar revolutions. This where the media has a very important role to fulfill. When media appropriately represents the common man, they feel that their voices are carried to the executive. But when common man perceives a collusion between all pillars and feel neglected or ignored, it will uproot all 4 pillars from the society.
