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, Ayan Sharma, and Nikita Bishnoi to discuss several aspects of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak.
While Nikita talks about her report on how India has tested less than one percent of its population, Ayan explains his report on how private coaching institutes are dealing with the lockdown. The panel also discusses Basant’s report on a group of auto drivers who drove close to 1,400 km to reach their homes in Bihar’s Katihar district.
This and a lot more as they talk about what made news, what didn’t, and what shouldn’t have.
Tune in!
