Reporters Without Orders Ep 351: The decline and fall of Network18?

This week, host Sumedha Mittal is joined by The Caravan’s Sagar.

Sagar talks about his report on Network18 shifting from public interest journalism to what he describes as appeasing the government. He explains how Network18 changed after Ambani took over and how journalists were asked to defend the prime minister. This led to the resignation, even firing, of several journalists, he explained.
