Default Level of News and News Channel in India is decreasing?


Ok for the past few months i have noticed that our News Channels like Aaj Tak,Zee News,NDTV,and D grade news channels like Star News,India TV have started to give importance to some cr@p news without knowing the actual truth.They call it "Breaking News".Star News and India TV are the worst.Star news shows news like "Aaj ash ne apne sasur Amitabh se aashirwaad liya" and they show this news whole day.Is this so important?There are other issues which they should show.But they care about TRP's i guess.What do u guys think about this change in News channels?

I agree with all the 3 above! Not to forget about the K serials on star news and television reporters asking "Aaj aish ne kya khaya", "kuch piya ki nahi?".....sumtimes I feel like they r making fun of their subscribers.....makes me remember raju srivastava's performance on GILC showing the various moods of a news reader!!!

Don't watch crap, encourage others not to, ratings fall, channel shapes up or goes out

level..?? which level buddy..! they have already gone too low..!!

Recently our most favourite 'India TV' showed the news that Taj mahal was on top of the list of seven wonders and has got maximum votes!! Now tell me when there wasn't any official ranking declared for the seven wonders how come these idiots came to knew about it ?!!!

I am thinking of skipping that channel now !

Yesternight India TV was showing a guy who can throw milk out of his eye.
The same thing happened in guiness book of records tv show an year back.
SO whats the big deal. The news aired for about 0.5 hour. Not worth it.

I like watching Star News and India TV for humour. I think these channels are projecting towards catering a different set of audience who want to watch news for entertainment.

For news CNN IBN and NDTV are the only channels which are still doing well.

Cool Re: Level of News and News Channel in India is decreasing?

i think the tv news channels can be catergorised into some specific cat

1> lamers: one news whole day
2> show makers : snake and a boy friendship stuff illogical to all but a whole day event to some
3> hot news onlookers : hookers sting operation and so on (high TRP)
4> idiots : ahemm what did others show i want to re-telecast

so on .. do feel free to contribute into the list as per your thoughts

...cnt



5> breaking news hunters ! : well all news is breaking news all the time for them wonder even this news will be one to them i wish they show this thread too on tv

6> Educators : want to make desi liqour just watch their special report they show it as if its a matter of pride to them a operation exposing the illict liqour barons dynasty

7> vagabonds : anywhere their agent is there to show things like how people spit on roads and how the crow flies

...cnt soon

8> we know all : this guys just go around showing things which are least concern to you or to anyone except the news channels time filling slot!

9> stingers: they just roam around do goofy stuffs and get all the sex workers a free pulbicity , dug peddlers more audiences, and makes problems for u and me too.

10 > baba group : ok these guys got a baba/a tarot reader or say anyone who is good for them (supposingly) and make a full day event out of it

11> crime reporter : the reporter or the channel anchor looks more like a criminal to all ..i think this should inspire all bhai public to take up jobs as reporter or the anchor of some xyz channel

.... any one can contribute

Nearly all the hindi news channels now show crap news nowadays. Only once in a while news they show have any value. Also they show a lot of ads between the news. India TV is the one of the worst news channels. It shows the least imp news as breaking news.

Yes for Hindi news channels. When they are not having new content , they repeat the same thing again and again and then again. But that's not the case with channels like NDTV 24x7,times now etc.
