Major changes sweeping through Noida channels as they perceive winds of change. One hate spewing anchor has been sacked and his boss was not given a raise- the only one in the network. This despite the anchor trying to desperately show that he had the support of some powerful… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Also a major Hindi channel that had hired the biggest Bhakts to increase TRPs is now grappling with worse than ever TRPs so a major reshuffle is on the cards there as well. Karnataka elections was the last example of the inability of Noida channels to set narrative and agenda.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Just by buying landing pages and manipulating ratings with money you can’t validate viewership and generate revenues. As more states fall in the opposition’s kitty more TV channels will be forced to moderate their communal content. Reason for change is commerce, perception and… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
South Indian Chief Ministers are not ready to meet Noida editors and anchors and South is where the revenue is. For how long will you sustain a business that excludes large parts and states of the country.

पंजाब में हुई गिरफ्तारी से नोएडा एंकर्स व्यथित हैं!
पर यह वही रास्ता है जो भाजपा ने सरकारों को दिखाया है, कैसे सिद्दीक़ कप्पन जैसे पत्रकारों को महीनों जेल में रखो, स्वतंत्र मीडिया संस्थाओं पर रेड करो, रस्सी को साँप बना कर फर्जी मुकदमे करो और अभिव्यक्ति की आज़ादी को समाप्त कर दो।
आज जो भावना के साथ हो रहा है वो देश में ना जाने कितने पत्रकारों के साथ हुआ है। किसी की नौकरी छीन ली गई, किसी को जेल भेजा गया, किसी की जासूसी कि गयी तो किसी को सोशल मीडिया पर निरंतर अपमानित किया गया। सच बोलने की क़ीमत हर पत्रकार चुका रहा है और यह रास्ता भाजपा का ही दिखाया हुआ है।
सरकारों का चरित्र एक सा होता जा रहा है, बदले की भावना से कार्यवाही अब आम बात होती जा रही है और इसका कारण मुख्यधारा की मीडिया है। जिसने इस नीति को अपनी मौन सहमति दी।

अब आग अपने घर तक पहुँची तो तकलीफ हो रही है, शायद हम जो बात वर्षों से कह रहे हैं वो थोड़ी बहुत समझ आयी होगी।

Devendra Fadnavis says the attempt to blackmail his wife was was a part of a political conspiracy. Some questions for @Dev_Fadnavis ji- Did opposition party leaders force your wife to befriend the daughter of a notorious bookie?
The bookie was wanted by the police for several years. The story says your wife befriended her in 2014. You were Chief Minister then. The girl had access to your residence too. Did opposition party leaders make you ignorant of the girl and her father’s antecedents?
Did opposition party leaders tell your wife to accept clothes and jewellery from the bookie’s daughter out of ‘sympathy’ as reported by the Indian Express?

No other leader in Indian politics has been trolled, abused and wrongly and deliberately misquoted as Rahul Gandhi. From newsrooms to paid troll armies, a campaign was launched to destroy his reputation & make him a subject of ridicule. Every journalist in Delhi knows this well.
You could have an opinion on whether he is or isn’t a good leader or whether he makes for a good politician but the campaign wasn’t just an organic or a spontaneous one but calculated and carefully planned with some top editors playing a starring role.
What helped was also that Rahul Gandhi isn’t a vindictive leader and for years the Congress’ communication was headed by a man who didn’t think it was worth addressing for reasons best known to him. That of course has changed now which is good for both Gandhi and his party.

Some observations on how Noida media has covered @kharge’s election as @INCIndia president and @JPNadda’s selection as BJP president. Kharge is considered a ‘rubber stamp’ because he has never indulged in dissident activities & is staunchly committed to his party & it’s ideology.
Nadda was celebrated for being a ‘silent strategist’ and a staunch loyalist with an ‘unflinching commitment to ideology’. No rubber stamp and remote control here of course despite the fact that Nadda wasn’t elected but selected as president…
Thousands of Congress workers voted for Kharge. You could argue that he was visibly supported by the Gandhis but the Gandhis’ choice was endorsed by party workers. Noida media cannot be upset that the person they endorsed- in this case Tharoor- was not the choice of Cong members.

Since our honourable courts seem to be confused by what defines rape, let me list out some basics.
1) Non consensual sex is rape.
2) Rape isn’t defined by the identity of the rapist- if stranger then rape else not rape. All non consensual sex is rape….
3) Denial of sexual access can be grounds for divorce. Isn’t justification for rape.
4) Women’s rights over their bodies doesn’t cease with marriage and isn’t signed off to their husbands
5) ‘Legitimate expectation of sex’ as spelled out by the Hon. judge does not mean rape.
6) It is the duty of the state to protect the dignity and rights of women as enshrined in Article 21 of the constitution. It is our fundamental right. Women don’t lose that right because of marriage or a relationship…

The Gorakhpur police brutality should not be seen merely through a BJP vs opposition prism. This is a larger issue with devastating implications for citizens. The last few years have seen legitimising of police brutality in the state.The system is geared towards protecting itself
The police version is seen as the only truthful version. There is no presumption of innocent until proven guilty. What happens with this is that citizens are seen as enemies of a powerful state. When a police state is normalised, Gorakhpur type incidents happen…
Remember governments always change eventually. What stays is the brutal system. The cops and bureaucrats who have created this system will turn turtle and shift loyalties. It has happened before. It will happen again. When you seek accountability, you seek it for yourself.
