A reporters’ podcast about what made news and what shouldn’t have.
The media must be free and fair, uninfluenced by corporate or state interests. That's why you, the public, need to pay to keep news free.
ContributeIn this episode, host Snigdha Sharma is joined by Newslaundry’s Basant Kumar and Prateek Goyal. They discuss various aspects of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak.
While Basat talks about his report on the Tihar prisoners who were released and left to walk a hundred kilometers home, Prateek sheds light on the gathering of migrant workers in Bandra, Mumbai, which he covered in this report.
They also talk about Basant’s report on the condition of migrant workers working at roadside dhabas in Murthal, Haryana, and Prateek’s experience reporting from Pune’s Sasoon General Hospital.
This and a lot more as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have.
Tune in!
