Yes it will be terrible to see media is being divided. I think the news channels with all their wisdom, knowledge and expertise teach or explain or discuss better issues on foreign relations/ policies, economy,science, agriculture, health, education and entertainment ( that restricts essentially showcasing the best of our creativity in film industry) etc., that helps the young minds to understand and acquaint with the facts and problems, and the nation’s potential rather than getting into petty political and controversial issues . Let the channels invite international leaders in various areas rather than wasting their prime time with useless discussions on controversial issues.

Sample size of just 499 households is too small. BARC needs to change that and also there is need to frequently change households selected for barometers.
