News TV takes

IN Media Watch Briefs | 18/02/2016

On Zee TV Prime time anchor Sudhir Choudhary while unraveling the day's events in his news show aired a clip from the  epic tele-serial Chankaya in which the legendary statesman talked about the importance of Rashtra Dharma and how supporting nationhood was the ultimate and foremost duty of every individual. And then there was the Minister of Environment Prakash Javadekar's reply on NDTV's Left, Right and Centre when he said  that nobody could tell 'us' about press freedom because 'we' had gone to jail under the Emergency. Last but not least, Rahul Shiv Shankar on NewsX hoped that the international media were not watching the happenings in Patalia House Courts. (They were, TOI had a report on Feb 18.)
