My favourite primetime segment yesterday was on NDTV — where a stern anchor was grilling her over her paper’s ownership because it apparently began as a labour party mouthpiece. With no sense of irony, of course 🥲 Do watch this full interview. Yes she’s a young journalist and yes she may not know much about India — but that is exactly the point. In places that actually value press freedom, even the smallest of media houses/reporters can question the biggest neta. You can call it silly, irritating, a bit ott — but that’s what a free press looks like





Throughout all day I have struggled to log onto my Instagram account. Now I have been suspended. It is a small prize to pay for press freedom, but I’ve never experienced it before.















Full blown clash at MEA presser as reporter asks "why should India be trusted". MEA's Secy West @AmbSibiGeorge responds by India's role in providing global help during Covid, India's constitution, fundamental rights. The reporter leaves the presser, then later comes back.
