*toxic newsroom alert"
#longthread

I have worked twice in Indian newsrooms. Once in the early 2000s and one recently. Sorry to report nothing has changed in the two decades. These newsrooms are as toxic as ever. Incl the othering of women esp senior journalists.
I had recently joined @News9Tweets as a part-time consulting editor and my experience there was bizarre and toxic. From the word go they would try to work me over and beyond my hours - which I politely refused. Asking them to respect my hours.
The remote gig - although it paid peanuts - suited me because I was based in Uttarakhand for a while - researching a couple of stories for other clients. But owing to the Uttarakhand disaster over the dussehra break, I couldn't work for a few days. Duly informed everyone.

☆I don’t feel like the “government is controlling me;” I feel like I’m being a contributing adult to society.
☆The world doesn’t revolve around me. It’s not all about me and my comfort.1/3
