A beautiful article exposing Indian Paid media and the political muscle that is protecting them.
Some hard hitting excepts exposing this gang.
But what's more serious is the silence of the eminent editors over the increasingly violent attacks that the journalists are facing. One is amazed that Shourie has not been outspoken on this phenomenon. Why did not we see a big gathering of eminent editors to express their concerns when on 8 June, 2015 Shahjahanpur-based journalist Jagendra Singh, who had been set ablaze on 1 June allegedly by goons of state minister Ram Murti Verma (under Akhilesh Yadav as chief minister), died of burns?
Singh had been writing extensively about Verma’s alleged involvement in corruption, land grabs and illegal mining. Such attacks are aplenty in other states as well. This is the real threat to the the freedom of press. But Shourie and his ilk do not find these incidents disturbing enough or important enough to come to the Delhi Press Club and express their concerns or solidarity.
One remembers in this context the mob violence in Maharashtra against the prominent regional newspaper Lokmat about two years ago. Spearheaded by Congress legislator Shaikh Rashid, Muslim protestors attacked multiple offices of the paper, just because it had carried a cartoon showing various currency symbols pouring into a piggy bank whose snout carried an image from the jihadist group's flag: A white seal with black Arabic lettering that reads "Muhammad is the messenger of God."
The duplicity of these same people is astounding.
This is the reason the paid media and the politicians like Shourie supporting them are fast loosing credibility and are destroying their own reputation while doing so.

Sources told DNA that assessment of the concealed income of Rs 642.5 crore relating to NDTV Group and related companies was done during UPA regime on February 21, 2014. Re-assessment proceedings for concealment of Income of Rs 403.85 crore have been initiated against M/s RRPR Holdings Pvt. Ltd. (owned by Prannoy and Radhika Roy) and are presently underway.
The Reserve Bank of India too seemed to have detected violation of several provisions of FEMA by the NDTV Group to the tune of Rs 2030 crore. The Enforcement Directorate in this regard has issued a show cause notice for contravention of FEMA provisions.
The investigating agencies say that NDTV, which is controlled by Prannoy Roy and Radhika Roy had only two subsidiaries in India till the year 2006. However, from 2006 to 2012, NDTV floated 32 paper companies including 14 foreign shell companies in U.K., the Netherlands, Mauritius, Sweden and U.A.E. in order to launder unaccounted income of Rs 1,100 crore using these paper entities.

Look at the kind of security cover around Yogi Adityanath...All at tax payer's money.
And, these brave students who shouted "Murdabad" have been denied bail and sent to 14 days custody. Such action for showing black flags is unprecedented. Usually, students who show black flags to politicians are let off soon. But the vengeful Sanghi govt in UP is no mood to do that. In the custody of UP police, their lives are not safe.
And, none of the main news channels showed these protests against the UP CM, within such a short time of him taking charge.

Next time they will stay in school and complete their education before dabbling in politics
Yehi tho hai Ram Rajya
Shouting ISIS slogans becomes "fight between passengers"
Secularism strikes again
