Media Crooks says he is like the statutory warning on a pack of cigarettes. After reading his blog, the likes of Barkha Dutt, Arnab Goswami and Sagarika Ghose are reduced to a laughing stock, he says. True, but… 1. The mainstream media was being questioned for a long time before Ravinars blog became popular. Audience fatigue and irritation were particularly high in the mid- and late-1990s when English language Indian news television had no competition, with NDTV ruling the roost, making programmes for Star News. 2. Someone in this video asks a pertinent question: What is the alternative to these crooks on prime time? Fine, you laugh at Dutt, Goswami and Ghose. But do you have first-hand information about the whos who that are subjects of MSMs news with which you can challenge them? For example, if Dutt claims Mr X met Mr Y, do you have an eyewitness whom you can quote as saying that such a meeting never happened? No, you dont. https://youtube/watch?v=hH1r-2ypNEA&feature=youtu.be
