      44:36 tbh it’s their fault and it’s not their fault , it’s the NDTVs fault that they were thinking that the government who’s lap they’re sitting in will go on forever
      And it’s not their mistake now because , I mean think about it once you go up in life, then suddenly you can’t come back down , I mean imagine you’re used to driving a Mercedes now if you’re suddenly down to maruti suzuki , It will leave a bitter taste in your mouth
      Now imagine you’re downed by the government, whom you thought you will control using your propaganda against 😂

      In some sense, it was not an 'expose'; anyone with the least discernment already knew this. I suppose many among the younger generations watch the cacophonies of Republic TV and Times Now, and contrast it with NDTV's equanimity, and infer that the latter does journalism whereas the former two only erect a circus. It is not quite true. Certainly, a calmer tone is an important factor, but it is not the sole factor.

I brought this up with the higher ups that it's a waste of money for that so called consultant who doesnt even answer our phones. He told me that the real reason for hiring NDTV is to be in the good books of the dispensation of the day as they can broker to get "things done" with their connections and told me to ignore those consultants. Then I moved to another channel after a while and it was the same story there. Every regional channel was wooing them for their influence.

      People have forgotten the meaning. I mean we can't blame them, they all 10th fail prolly. Secular means to have all religions on an equal pedestal and that was agreed upon in the constitution and is one of the words in the preamble(first page). But unfortunately this word has become a way to target people and shame them for being rational and logical.

    As her point even when NDTV had access to the government, they were still asking questions from them. They didn't hire a script writer to ask questions like "aap aam kaise khaatey ho" ya "aap thaktey kyun nahin". The term "Godi Media" exists because the kind of work they are doing which is only promoting how great central govt is and not asking real questions for regular people. It's not because a reporter like Ravish wants to put them down.
    I've worked with a media agency for 2 years and I know how things changed when JNU protests were happening or Ram Mandir verdict came out. Currently Indian media is like a dog with a leash to the central government. There's a reason why press freedom ranking of our country is 150 which is really sad for the largest democracy of the world.

      ​@@sanjeevverma4533 I never blamed Akshay Kumar, it was not his personal question. The producers give questions to ask in such interviews. But the real question should be why an actor was picked to take interview of our PM. Where were all the journalists?
      The only last unscripted interview which our PM gave was to Karan Thapar, in which he walked out and since he's not been part of even one press conference. You can go and watch 2019 BJP press conference where he passed all the questions to Amit Shah and didn't even answer one.
      Another incident when PM was addressing villagers through a video call, one person stood and started asking about increase in price of petrol and other materials. Look at the way he was asked to sit down. If you think that it is alright for our leader to dodge questions like this or only sit in orchestrated interviews then what's the point of even having journalists. And if you think there's nothing wrong and no questions are worth asking then I've nothing to say. Have a nice day.

    Having access doesn't equate to being completely partisan. Maybe Ravish Kumar went all out because everyone else stopped carrying out their journalistic duties.

And I am sure in her heart of hearts she very well knows this and also what her "friends" in other news channels are doing.

    People criticising Seema ji for her seemingly rightist approach must remember that everyone has their biases. But the true journalist will try to find the balance by not being blatant without the necessary facts. The true journalist will paint the picture whilst trying to be wholesome, rather than just putting up cropped up images.
    I think the thing with NDTV was as she said, they always had the access no matter what. But post-jio era has substantially diminished the value of media's influence, as the value of ' access ' factor got substantially deminished. People no more rely on the media houses to form opinions. This has been seemed as a threat in many of the top tier journalists of the past and their agony of loosing the status and the stature is highly visible !

Those who label the others (who have different opinions) as anti nationals, opposition's propaganda and what not. Is it not biasness. Ravish criticised congress during there government and he hasn't changed his style of journalist but why those journalist who used to be neutral has started favouring bjp? These Tv channels have started criticising public supreme court and all those international organisations which ask question to modi government and mark my words that day isn't far away when they will be criticising armed forces as well. If you are true then why you run away from questions? Modi has never had any press conference. Why? ... They are doing extremely well in terms of development but when it comes to handling criticism they are zero. When it comes to doing good politics they are zero. They only know one type of politics that is politics of religion (same as divide and rule). They only know one way to stop criticism that is ED CBI raids

And we know his reasons well. Ndtvs has always been Pro congress and has been getting access from so many years. I mean, if it doesn't suit you, it doesn't mean other people are wrong. Modis government might have done many things wrong, but no one can deny they have done so many things right as well. Media has always been either leftist or rightist but there is a way to criticize govt. People have voted this govt. twice that means these people are wrong and NDTV is the only grp where people think righteous ?

    Nostalgia vs modernity is a double edged sword.DD news might have been boring and conforming but todays news is like reading a thriller novel at a book club,with more opinions than facts.Sometimes straightforward and emotionless news is what is required.It’s news not drama

    Difference of Sanskar , I have seen Union Ministers, Army - R&AW officers addressing Smita mam as Smita ji or mam but Dostcast guy despite being of Smita mam's son age kept on calling her Smita-Smita .. Shame on him , nothing goes away if we give respect to others especially our elders..

    She speaks as if Ravish kumar is on CZcams because he was fired from NDTV.

    ANI journalist criticising Ravish Kumar and defending Arnab,Navika,Rajat etc. BJP doesn't like Media!!! She features in Arnab's show defending the govt. She says Amit Shah is brilliant!!! Her guests are pro govt right wing or right leaning people.Her twitter gives away what she thinks and whom she favours. Nothing more to say.
