The order, issued in 'public interest' by I&B Ministry, doesn't specify any mechanism of review or criteria under which the suspension could be lifted before four-week concludes.
Liberalism is INDIA’s brand proposition as against what it describes as the BJP’s narrow-minded bigotry. This listing of its no-go anchors does not strengthen that claim.
TV news is dominated by ‘dangals’, spy stories, scams, raids, attacks on PM Modi, and that meddlesome ‘foreign hand’ grasping at the very heart of India.
News channels use repetition to hammer home a point. And so the constant telecast of the ‘shivling’ and the inside of the mosque make viewers believe this is ‘Gyanvapi ka sach’.
Not all bulldozers will get the same TV treatment. JCB in Delhi gets the best carpet coverage. But if you want to be an overnight TV star, pick a religious angle.
In the midst of war and economic distress, IPL 2022 offers four hours of unadulterated entertainment every evening—that’s more than what Hollywood and Bollywood can do.
News channels put out promos and boast of the size of the team covering Ukraine. Even a smaller player like 'India Ahead' is promoting itself through its Ukraine stories.
Akhilesh Yadav and Amarinder Singh gave Indian news channels the opportunity to feature ‘Pakistan’ in their headlines and debates. But not after a Top Gun moment.
Anjana Om Kashyap of Aaj Tak was incensed at Akhilesh calling her an ‘imandaar’ journalist. Yogi Adityanath doesn't need to as anchors listen to him almost respectfully.
For India's Hindi and English news channels, following Modi wherever he goes is a win-win strategy: they earn PM and BJP's goodwill at a very low cost to themselves.
This special edition of Cut The Clutter, straight from the Siliguri corridor, details the strategic importance of the narrow strip of land in West Bengal, and how it’s a vital link connecting the Northeast to the rest of India.
We now live in a world order that will keep shifting. India must use this window. This also means we remain disciplined enough not to be knee-jerked into reacting to what Pakistan sees as its moment in the sun.
Seriously even during OP sindoor these TV media were doing so much sensationalism that I genuinely don’t think anyone other than middle aged people watch it anymore.
I hope people stop watching them because that’s the only way they will stop doing it. Unfortunately I don’t see it changing in the next 10 years.
Suspend it forever ! Great riddance. This fourth pillar has become a jokers paradise.
