Kejriwal-Media collusion exposed
Kejriwal-Media Collusion Exposed, Paid News In TV Channels. Training guns against the news media is a pet shot for all who belong to the new entrant ‘holy cow’ in the Indian political diaspora – the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Why certain TV news channels are not corrupt for AAP
Training guns against the news media is a pet shot for all who belong to the new entrant ‘holy cow’ in the Indian political diaspora – the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). Calling it names, bad mostly, suits the Kejri and party agenda like nothing else, and playing a poor victim to ‘paid’ press earns it a good name, maybe votes too.
Nevertheless, with the video, doesn’t seem fake one and not played with as well, out on the social networking site showing the cleanest leader in the Indian politics after Gandhi (as AAPians believe), dictating terms to a ‘veteran’ news anchor on how his interview must be telecast on TV, confirms the double-speak of the man.
Not long before, after earning a cold-shoulder for his irrationally absurd demand from the side of Narendra Modi in Gujarat, he courted a controversy by boarding a flight to a media conclave organised by a leading news media group.
But, the ‘Swaraj’ man was quick to retort with a tweet “Reached India Today conclave from Jaipur. Since there was no regular flt, India today group hired a charter to reach me in Delhi on time.”
It’s surprising to learn that a party as new as democracy in Pakistan receives such a wide media attention, especially when ‘paid news’ phenomenon is on a constant rise and most media groups are working with almost empty coffers.
It’s not to point that the ever so clean political unit infuses money in certain media groups under the table - But what attracts such a good press for them and that too for free (as they maintain)?
Almost all political parties breed a media mouthpiece to put up their thoughts in front of public, and now all know, who speaks up for AAP.
Criticizing media for being crooked, now all know what makes AAP gaze everyone with the same spectacle - either you praise them or remain silent; else they will dub you as corrupt. Listening news media groups?
See this video showing AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal asking a TV news anchor to put more prominence on certain ‘powerful’ sections of his off-the record interview. The clip has gone viral on YouTube.
