Baba Ka Dhaba | What We Can Learn | The Full Story | Dhruv Rathee




Baba ka Dhaba became a viral sensation last year after food vlogger Gaurav Wasan made a YouTube video on Baba's (Kanta Prasad) story of how they have been struggling in the lockdown. Ever since that time, when this story was regarding as a story full of humanity and compassion, there have been multiple twists and turns in the story with people blaming each other, accusing each other, and trolling each other. I explain the underlying social issue here.

TRP ka naach, in the name of Ram & SSR | TV Newsance  Episode 136




We look at the whole #JusticeForSSR sham one year after the actor’s death. While #Republic and #ArnabGoswami made this the agenda of primetime for three whole months, they have quietly moved on from the ‘murder mystery’ story now. Ditto for #TimesNow’s #NavikaKumar. We look at how a perfect #conspiracy was hatched on TV news to keep you distracted from real issues. 

Meanwhile, this week the #AyodhyaLandDeal made headlines and #ZeeNews jumped in to do what they do best. #AmanChopra questioned #SamajwadiParty instead of probing the #RamTempleTrust. Watch!

मुफ्त की Vaccine पर एंकरों का सोहरगान और ट्विटर-भारत सरकार का घमासान l NL Tippani Episode 66



पिछले हफ्ते #PMModi ने राष्ट्र को संबोधित किया. अपनी #VaccinationPolicy पर यू टर्न मार लिया. इस अवसर पर दुमछल्ले मीडिया और फिल्मसिटी की बैरकों में घात लगाए एंकर एंकराओं ने जमकर सोहरगान किया. उनकी समझ में मोदीजी का पूरा भाषण आया या नहीं यह तो वो ही जानें लेकिन एक बात साफ है कि दुमछल्ले मीडिया ने इस पूरे भाषण की सिर्फ एक चीज समझ आई- मोदीजी सबको #FreeVaccine देंगे. यह कोई भारत की बात नहीं है. ब्रिटेन का एनएचएस स्वास्थ्य व्यवस्था में मिसाल है. अमेरिका में ओबामा केयर की इसी तर्ज पर तारीफ हुई. दुनिया के तमाम अमीर देश अपने नागरिकों को इस तरह की सुविधाएं देते हैं. मनरेगा जैसी योजना इसी सोच से पूरे देश में लागू हुई थी. लेकिन अनपढ़ एंकरों ने इसे सिर्फ वोट और मुफ्तखोरी की नजर से देखा. किसी को कहां पता था कि कालांतर में जब मोदीजी प्रधानमंत्री बनेंगे, तब मीडिया उनका दुमछल्ला बन जाएगा. मीडिया आज़ाद रहे इसकी जिम्मेदारी अब आपको उठानी पड़ेगी. सरकारों और कारपोरेशन के हित मीडिया को दुमछल्ला ही बना सकते हैं. न्यूज़लॉन्ड्री को सब्सक्राइब कीजिए और गर्व से कहिए मेरे खर्च पर आज़ाद हैं खबरें

What if the Govt. was a Mobile Service Provider? | DeshBhakt Tonic with Akash Banerjee feat. VIKAS!




Good Governance is like good service being provided by a company. We pay money for that service in the form of tax. However what it Governance becomes like a mobile service provider of today. Clogged network / no signal or reach / inflated bills and broken promises?

The Sushant Singh Story (& who 'scored big' from his passing away?) | Deshbhakt with Akash Banerjee




This DeshBhakt special episode is dedicated to the real #SSR fans who are still looking for closure and for the past year. Real fans who have lived under the illusion that unemployed actors like #Kangana, TRP hungry wolves like #Arnab, and paid social media influencers, lawyers and 'experts' were fighting for justice and for SSR :(
In this extended episode, we take a look at how people were hoodwinked into believing conspiracies linked to Sushant - even when facts were scarce or absent. How News TV ripped into pieces - any journalistic code and mislead the nation for MONTHS and how #Reha was reduced to an object of national shame. In the age of misinformation - cases like this will happen again, more SSRs will be used for ulterior motives - for politics and to distract us from REAL issues. The real tribute to SSR would be - that we take this as a warning for the future. Warning - not to be used again.

GDP tanks, Modi completes 7 years, but where is Arnab Goswami? | TV Newsance Episode 134

 

GDP tanks, Modi completes 7 years, but where is Arnab Goswami? | TV Newsance Episode 134



Where exactly is #ArnabGoswami? We accept that we miss him and it’s time he comes back before his team of anchors ruins his years of hard work on #RepublicTV. Moving on to serious stuff, we take a look at how on #TimesNow, #RahulShivshankar and #NavikaKumar celebrate the “silver lining” of #GDP contracting as India faces its biggest economic recession since Independence. We also look at the usual suspects coming together in commemoration of Supreme Leader Modi, who completed seven “historic” years in office. #AnandNarsimhan of #CNN News18 hailed him as a leader who turned India into an “elected autocracy” because “that's the power of Modiji”. We are as confused as you. We also take a look at #IndiaToday’s assault on our visual senses with a strange visual concoction of gory bruised eyes and beach images of a mystery woman involved in the case of #MehulChoksi, a fugitive Indian jeweler.

#Ramdev & his TV News friends with benefits | TV Newsance Episode 133



This week we look at how two big national news channels #ABPNews and #AajTak covered the controversy around yog guru #Ramdev’s statements on modern medical science, the medical fraternity, and #Ayurveda. #AnjanaOmKashyap missed out on some tough questioning, and chaos is catalyzed to derail the discourse. Meanwhile, Ramdev continues to promote his #coronil and other #Patanjali products as if news channels are teleshopping channels. We also look at Ramdev’s daily show on #IndiaTV. Some TV nuisance comes in from #News18 India’s Bangla counterpart as well. Watch! Reading list : https://www.newslaundry.com/2021/05/1...

Inside Uttar Pradesh's Primary Healthcare Centres | A New Normal ft. Samdish | Ep. 07

 

Inside Uttar Pradesh's Primary Healthcare Centres | A New Normal ft. Samdish | Ep. 07



The second wave of Covid-19 has hit rural India hard. With villages recording a high number of cases and deaths, the primary healthcare centers in these areas are nowhere near functional. Our team visited 5 such centers in Uttar Pradesh to see how prepared we are in the fight against a possible third wave. #covid19 #coronainindia #globalpandemic THE NEXT JUMP Our new website https://www.unscripted.news/ is now live! Why? Because journalism is expensive. And while many newsrooms have cut back on their on-ground journalism, ushering in the age of TV news ‘debates’, that's simply not something we want to do. We want to be out in the field, reporting, researching, and doing work that we believe in, work that is not only time-consuming but increasingly more expensive as we attempt to scale up. Over the last five years, we have tried to do branded content, native brand messaging, a strategy that has worked successfully for ScoopWhoops’ other divisions, and as we’ve grown, trended, and influenced policy, brands have increasingly reached out to us for collaborations. However, what they ask of us, is something we aren’t willing to make, because the tone, rawness, lack of filter, irreverence, and political beliefs of each of our members is what makes us, us. We want to continue to report fearlessly on issues that are important to you and for that we need you. By subscribing to Unscripted you empower us to continue to do work that matters without us having to compromise on the kind of stories we want to do, personnel costs, or to the demands of corporate India. Go to https://www.unscripted.news/ for all the details and with your support, we can keep our journalism free from restraints.

How to save Modi by blaming China & state governments | TV Newsance Episode 131

 

How to save Modi by blaming China & state governments | TV Newsance Episode 131



This week, we look at how the usual suspects from the TV news world are trying their best to shield the dear leader Prime Minister #NarendraModi from criticism on the handling of the #SecondWave

While (not so) smart #TimesNow tried to spin existing information in favor of the Pradhan Sevak, #SucheritaKukreti and #GauravArya of #RepublicTV decided to not do so much mehnat and just go with a year-old conspiracy on #coronavirus. After all, all that goes around, comes around! 

Also, check out #ChitraSingh from #AajTak and #RomanaIsarKhan from #ABPNews taking a break from their usual sweet-talking as they do some hard talk with the spokies of the #BJP party. Enjoy it while it lasts…
 
Reading list: 
Scientists said claims about China creating the coronavirus were misleading. 
They went viral anyway.
