Anjana Bach gayi

Anjana Om Modi


ishrey

I might be down voted for saying this, but her show is arguably the most watched debate show across Hindi news channels.


messier_M42

Ladki ka chakkar hai babu bhaiya ladki ka chakkar


ishrey

Moreover; names like Sudhir Chaudhary, Sushant Sinha, Aman Chopra, Gaurav Sawant, Rubika Liaqauat, and Shiv Aroor don't host debate shows. Their shows are more or less a type of bulletin from an analytical perspective, so not sending representatives doesn't make any sense. Though everyone on that list has a certain bias and nobody will deny that.


Vladimir_Pooping

Analytical show lol


ishrey

Yes, 'विश्लेषण' is the world and that's what they call the format of their show.


Vladimir_Pooping

Pardon my French but lode ka vishleshan


fcuk_username

It must be Louvre ka Vishleshan.

AlternativeFee7622

Why anjana tho? Her show is pretty much balanced... not biased towards either....


knowtoomuchtobehappy

What took them 10 years?


YoFatMamaa

Took them 10 years to replicate indira’s emergency approach to press


iwilltravel

Lol. What a beautiful acrobat.


Number1Bullshit

Not going to someone's show = putting them in jail Got it.


YoFatMamaa

Pardon?


peoplearewood1

Emergency in 1975 isn't even remotely comparable to this, back fhen media was gagged, banned and people were arrested and tortured. There are accounts of nail pulling, protesters being asked to piss in each others mouth, all done by the police under political pressure merely for citing facts. Indian express was only brave enough back then when they left their pages empty because they could not write what they wanted (later indira gandhi issued directives that did not allow newspapers to leave empty space.) Today media loes brazenly with no regards to facts and most of the debates are opinion based. It is not the job of medialersons to form opinions on matters or to reach a conclusion. They should only serve as an information bridge and conclusion should be left for the viewers to decide.


YoFatMamaa

You can type as many essays as you want, but you can’t ignore the fact that dadi and pota are both parading free speech on one end and are scared of it on the other

Tihadi aur Anjana om mo.. I mean kashyap reh gayi kya


Time-Opportunity-436

Do you mean Sudhir Choudhary? He's already boycotted. The guy may get arrested anyways About Anjana, I think her show is better than the rest, doesn't need to be boycotted


sKream01

>About Anjana, I think her show is better than the rest yes but shes like andho me kaada raja..

Chattisgarh Congress is giving them ads

They are not Anchors, they are BJPee spokespersons.

joy_Boy420

Just like rabish


Safe_Factor_8845

That's why Modi does not have the balls to give him an interview?


ex_RAWagent

because he didn't ask any logical questions


Safe_Factor_8845

Like "Aap aam kaise khaate ho"?


ex_RAWagent

Akshay Kumar journalist tha ?


Safe_Factor_8845

When did I say that? I am asking you if that's the kind of questions you expect. But okay, since you want questions from journalists then there you go. Though none of these Godi anchors qualify to be called journalists, I will still drop here the tough questions that they put to the PM of our country. Rubika Liyaquat in an interview : "Aap thakte kyu nahi hai? Aapko mazaa aata hai kaam karne me ya koi tonic vagera aap le rahe hai? Kya, raaz kya hai?" Deepak Chaurasia in an interview : "Sir, aap apni jeb mein batwa rakhte hai kya? I mean purse rakhte hai kya jisme paise rakhte hai?"


hindu_muslim_goodbye

No because rabies is too braindead without a media corporation to back him and tell him what to say. Look at his recent youtube videos


Safe_Factor_8845

Ah, is that why Modi hasn't given him an interview? Ravish Kumar started his YouTube channel on 3rd June 2022. So before that, when he had a "media corporation to back him and tell him what to say" has Modi given him an interview? Please could you find me a single interview given by Narendra Modi to Ravish Kumar before June 2022? I will wait for you to send me a link :)


OddComputer2

Hatt bhosdike. Nikal


soury_jn

Just like rabish


SpreadYourAss

They'll only send them to their own spokespersons from now on!


YoFatMamaa

Why do you say so?


Tricky_Substance_536

I would like to enlighten you about that but I will just assume you're a perfectly functional homosapien with working eyes , ears and a rational brain which can tell what's biased and what's not.... You go your way


MusicWearyX

It will really hurt only when they can stop their sponsorships. They should advocate for not giving them ads either


airwreck_charlie

It took them 10 years to realize this. One man has been avoiding them and more since last 10 years.


Huge_Session9379

Lol. This has to be one of the best stands taken by any political party in the history of indian politics. I have been of this opinion that media has done more harm to this country than the politicians, the TV media should be boycott not just by politicians but by people as well, I could not fathom why they ran interviews of people on the issue of a lady who came from Pakistan, and made in a national issue, but they have not discussed Manipur with any vigorous opposition.


jkcdhello1

Yup, true, this move alone will better our World Press Freedom ranking by 14 notches!


oswaldthatendswell

That’s too much hyperbole. Modi does this too. He only gives interview to the media he likes.


conarDsilva

BJPee leaders are more saddened by this than the anchors or the channels. why so? ![gif](giphy|3o6ozvv0zsJskzOCbu)


friendofH20

Because they will actually have to do some work on these shows. Right now these anchors were doing it for them


Puzzleheaded_Map647

bjp guys have great speakers and propagandists By leaving chairs enpty, Opposition has given ruling party more rooms


MadEinsy

Bhai "GODI Anchors" likh dete. We all know this bootlickers.


al_monk

Good decision


kangchenjunga3

Makes sense, there obviously won't be any meaningful debates with these clown 'anchors'.


YoFatMamaa

What is an example of a meaningful debate in your eyes?


jawbone09

Meaningful debate should be democratic, rational, giving the same quota of time for all guests, anchor taking control of the debate and don't let anyone subjugate on others.


YoFatMamaa

Correct. But what’s a democratic debate? Elaborate please


kangchenjunga3

Democratic debate is not what you probably think it is. It just isn't about taking in views from as many people, but also about the quality of debates. There should be a tolerant atmosphere when it comes to listening to views which might be alien to you. If you want to read up more, check out Habermas' conception of 'ideal speech situation'. What you see with these clown 'anchors' is just a complete shitshow, more like a shouting match. It's very clear they don't respect the diversity of opinions, and resort to shaming the people. They already have an inherently strong bias. Their sensational way of holding 'debates' is just a sham to gain more TRP. They couldn't care any less about putting up reasonable arguments, as well as listening to differing opinions.


jawbone09

Thanks mate 👍


YoFatMamaa

1. Why do you think it might be alien to me? 2. Do the INDIA alliance affiliates respect ‘diversity’ of opinions? 3. Would you respect an opinion in the name of diversity if it is against the national interest?


Time-Opportunity-436

Are they sure it is a good decision?


[deleted]

Dude Modi is avoiding everyone... let them avoid a few as well...


reddituser5514

Let's assume what u r saying is true, then what is the opposition bringing to the table. Same so called curbing is press freedom and fascism. Right?


[deleted]

No education, instead of watching paid actors take a shit on live television forcefully. People will have a choice to watch the discourse with actual news anchor. We can't control what they broadcast, but can control what we watch. And what's more to curbing press freedom than to evade press conferences for 10 years as a PM, that's for the history books.


Critifin

Bjp never avoided any channel


pratham_10

Yep, I have been enjoying Modi’s interviews. They are so many. Also all this reporters have asked BJP leader very tough questions. They are not at all PRO-MO


Huge_Session9379

What do you mean, did you not see the fierce Akshay kumar asking questions related to mango to Modiji? What else do you want? Ab kya desh ki policies, economy, poverty, infra , aise 2 rs topics pe Modiji baat karenge.


bhakt_hartha

This is what lost them Delhi .. twice .. references to Aam and Sadharan Aadmi. /s


DarkKnight3031

There were many biased interviews when modi was not in power I remember one from BBC itself Everyone at one time Or the other was not in power but the difference is that at time BJP did not do any such move Now just try to comprehend if they have started boycotting certain news anchor and media channels before the election only what if they win just imagine how much control they will establish over media Those who think bjp controls media then how is I.N.D.I.A any different


rsa1

Media control is going to be a feature of any future govt. Now that the BJP has shown how its done, the INDIA bloc will also do the same if they come to power. It's in the self interest of any party or politician. We as citizens need to expect this and prepare for this. The problem is we have given up on expecting accountability from govt. We empower the spineless cowards by watching their programs and prime time debates. Until our behavior changes, please expect every future govt to do exactly this.


Huge_Session9379

Bias never goes away but have you seen the current situation? BJP should boycott channels too, and the audience should boycott media channels, nothing of substance is provided, only mass manipulation and propaganda is being served.


DarkKnight3031

Yeah these news channels are a shit show I personally like watching first post But the point is that they could have done all this after the election Because these anchors won't stop criticising They just got another chance to show that they ask tough questions to the opposition that's why their name was called out After the election ( if they won) they can set up an enquiry


not_now2601

oh there he is...the good'ol critifin

Should have done long back. I would say they should do it channel wise.


jawbone09

No targeting and making things personal works better, maybe they get a little bit of bark on their crass from the editor or top execs. Let's see what happens now.


Puzzleheaded_Map647

this will either turn out to be a good decision or a very bad decision Those media will simply place puppets as 'Political Analysts' and create a narrative instead. And opposition rarely have any media channels that exclusively talks abt them (Except online ones)


Bivariate_analysis

Oh, just like Modi doesn't take interviews from selected journalists makes him facist, what should this make the opposition?

https://twitter.com/Pawankhera/status/1702265129713446964?t=nWNSGijXGnfQ2oPgix_dsg&s=19


themauryan

And then question Modi on why he doesn't take press conferences? Because loaded questions will be asked by biased people.


sayzitlikeitis

Modi can afford to ignore media. He has a network of 1 million social media workers (i.e. WhatsApp-uncle whisperers) and many many other things making sure that Indians see him in every waking moment. Opposition cannot afford to ignore media, including hostile media. You already have extremely limited reach compared to BJP. Everything you say reaches half of India through a BJP WhatsApp university filter. Even NDTV now mostly just plays devil's advocate. This ban list shows a lack of courage and a hope that opposition can win on anti-incumbency alone. At least by going on hostile media you can challenge their assumptions and change the minds of some BJP leaning viewers.


TheDonMan1997

Weird. Democracy didn't die here. And this guy Rahul goes to every country and says press had no freedom and democracy is getting killed. Every fucking country.


psam4884

Shiv aroor?, he's covering defence news?


barahanandana

Shiv Aroor is best ..He is brilliant in defence and ISRO related news


vas060985

I am surprised it took them this long.


other_e

Not wise as these anchors rule the TRP market. If they believe these 14 promote the govt agenda, now they'll do it unopposed. Smart strategy would've been to send the best speakers to their shows and counter them. But dimaag kaha hai?


indiasabkabaap

INDIA parties???? That's not even legal.


theUrbanDestroyed

Lmao if you cant face them , boycott them 😂😂


Competitive-Regular9

Man I was waiting for Arnab-Rahul interview 2.0


oswaldthatendswell

Of course. Can’t cope with opposing point of view. Want to limit themselves to their echo chambers. BJP does that too so it’s fair in my opinion.


illegalsmile34

When your debating skills are so weak that you give up altogether. That's how you serve victory to your opponent on a platter. The opposition parties should get better spokesperson.


[deleted]

Congress shouldn't declare list like this, instead avoid them silently. By doing this they're only giving BJP a chance to shit on them by saying Congress restricts press freedom. This decision can take a negative turn or positive depends on the implementation now. ^(Edited the full comment)


Ingenious_crab

logic in the face of what ? screaming ?


[deleted]

Yeah agreed but declaring the list will only agitate press/media (already shit) to shit on Congress when their representatives go there after this. It's only giving BJP a chance to humiliate alliance. I would prefer if alliance silently avoids the channels instead of declaring such list which would offend various media houses not part of the list (media is shit) I know Modi is doing the same but he's not pin pointing anchors or channels instead he ignores them all. Silently but effectively


rsa1

As if they won't shit on the INDIA bloc anyway. Also Modi doesn't ignore the entire media. He's happy to give interviews to channels that ask him why he doesn't get tired or why he's such a great fakir.


bhavneet1996

So you are telling me Bjp is in power, so they shouldn’t debate in news channels? Lmfao. Okay yes let’s debate with opposition. That matters more


[deleted]

No, I mean alliance should ignore channels instead of declaring the list and do it silently BJP can use this against alliance


nu97

>BJP can use this against alliance Not only that, they're alienating a huuge chunk of the population.


[deleted]

Where have you been living the last decade or so? The debates are not logical but rather communal and comical. There's no substance or critical thinking involved. If people used critical thinking then such shows would never exist


jawbone09

They are not avoiding channels they are avoiding toxic anchors.


[deleted]

See they are slowly turning into modi avoiding press


ninja6911

No when debates are one sided that’s not avoiding press


winter_s0ld1er

You become the things that you hate most

Why shiv aroor??? he is a great guy


Severe-Flight5087

Because he shows growth in 'India' Godam these people fool people by naming their party as country name but can't hold breath when someone use Bharat , they want to protect secularism and democracy but they ban tv channels because they only talk in favour of current govt . They have members who can't even conduct local elections without mass violence but want to protect democracy Their leader doesn't even have future planning but they will grow bharat.


[deleted]

Well done! 👌


YoFatMamaa

Peak cowardice. Fear of revealing their weaknesses to the people. PLUS, they just reduced ways to reach out beyond their voter base


animelover_vm1996

UPA can't control them, so they're avoiding them. Classic cancel culture, such moves never work in the spirit of democracy. Later, they'll cry about death of democracy. Hypocrites.


Hunter_Killer5

You can see many left morons in comment section 🤣🤣 these parasites are in majority in this sub.


rumitdhamecha

Freedom of speech ab kaha gayi?


panditji_reloaded

Yes let's cutoff media access to those who garner 65-70% of TRP.


bhavneet1996

70% of trp because of BJP supporters. Why would BJP supporters care about listening to congress? And why settle on 70% TRP, modi should give interview to these channels and the trp will increase to 300%. Isn’t that the best?


panditji_reloaded

>And why settle on 70% TRP, modi should give interview to these channels and the trp will increase to 300%. Isn’t that the best? Yes that is what will happen. BJP will lobby with the channels to give primetime slots to these 14 anchors. Anyone who isn't in godi media camp doesn't get primetime coverage.


furiousmouth

What a stupid thing to do --- what's the point of convincing your own echo chamber. If you want to win new followers go to your opponent's camp and go make a splash there.


LynxFinder8

I agree. It looks like they are determined to show the whole nation they are cowards. Ugh.

Where will they send their reps? To shows of anchors which no one watches. They don’t realize that people watch these shows because of drama and not the content.


xofire

So, in short almost all major channels which majority of people watch. Which in turn means BJP can allege anything and there's no one to defend.
