IN Media Watch Briefs | 30/12/2016

NDTV has announced cost cutting measures which include shutting down bureau offices in five cities with reporters and cameramen being asked to move equipment to their homes. Other measures announced:no international travel, library to be shut down, minimal overnight stay, evening snacks to be stopped. The channel blames the "bad financial environment in India" for all of this. All staff travel to be by Uber or Ola. And this from a channel which used to be a really generous employer.
