Subject: Indian Media in Bed with Politicial Dynasty ! [[ Being circulated in " As Received " form ]] This study of antecedents of Media Personalities carried out in last 2 weeks. It was prompted by the CURIOUS phenomenon of Extreme Polarisation and Over-Enthusiasm ( even amounting to display of Bias at times ! ) displayed by some of our most well known Faces and Entities in Journalism , be it Print Media or Electronic Media. It was helped by a journalist friend who works with Financial Express. shobhna.jpg 1. Hindustan Times - Shobhna Bhartia, owner and editor-in-chief of Hindustan Times is a Congress MP from Rajya Sabha. vinod sharma.jpg 2. Vinod Sharma, HT Political Affairs editor, is essentially a Congress spokesman on all TV panel discussions, because once his boss' term gets over, he will be looking out for her RS seat next year! burkha & vir sanghvi.jpg 3. Barkha Dutt and Vir Sanghvi, famous Congress stooges (and intermediaries for UPA allies) who were exposed in the Radiagate scandal, and are Congress spokespersons in their capacities as electronic media personalities, are the ones who write opinion and columns most frequently (once every week) on the editorial pages of HT. In return, Barkha and Sanghvi are rewarded with Padma Shrees and other compensation by the Nehru dynasty or Congress party. prannoy & radhika.jpg 4. NDTV's promoters are Prannoy Roy and Radhika Roy. Radhika's sisterBrinda Karat is a famous CPM leader (well known for anti-Baba Ramdev views) and Brinda's husband Prakash Karat is the CPM, General Secretary (well known for preferring Congress over BJP). And Prannoy Roy's first cousin is the famous far-leftist pro-Maoist-Naxalite pro-Kashmiri-terrorists "intellectual" Arundhati Suzanna Roy. sonia singh.jpg 5. NDTV's Sonia Singh is the wife of Uttar Pradesh Congress MP, Union minister and ex-princely state ruler, Mr. R. P. N. Singh, who is one of the fastest rising stars in the Congress party. If you remember, Sonia Singh is a very high-profile anchor on NDTV whose anti-BJP views are followed by the great Sir Digvijay Singh! Nidhi.JPG 6. NDTV's Nidhi Razdan (high-profile anchor of Left Right Centre) is the current girlfriend of J&K CM Omar Abdullah (after Omar recently divorced Payal, his wife of several years and mother of his two children.) Nidhi Razdan is also famous for her Congress bias. rajdeep.jpg 7. CNN-IBN : Rajdeep Sardesai's wife and co-promoter of CNN-IBN,Sagarika Ghose, who anchors Face the Nation and is famous journalist of CNN-IBN (well, her hubby is the owner-editor-in-chief after all) are famous Congress stooges. Sagarika's father Bhaskar Ghose was a famous sarkari babu and was made the chief of Prasar Bharati (Doordarshan) during Indira and Rajiv regimes. Bhaskar Ghose was well-known for personal loyalty to the Nehru Dynasty, and now his daughter and son-in-law are rewarded with their own channel to do Congress propaganda. rajeev.jpg 8. Or even what about little known News24 Hindi media channel? Owned by ex-journalist and editor Rajiv Shukla, famous Congress MP in Rajya Sabha, Union minister, industrialist, BCCI vice president and IPL chairman. vijay darda.jpg 9. Or even what about little known Lokmat (and IBN Lokmat) that is Marathi newspaper (and channel) in Maharashtra? Owner and editors-in-chief are the brothers Vijay Darda (Congress MP) and Rajendra Darda (Congress MLA in Maharashtra, and minister in state govt). vinod ehta.jpg 10. Vinod Mehta - Outlook editor has been openly well known to take Anti BJP stand, specially on Times Now channel under Arnab Goswamy, on which he is invited often on for targeting BJP. The Congress (in fact just the one single family -- the Nehru Dynasty) has been in power for 56 of the last 65 years of independence. This matters a LOT to him . ============================== Above list has not even scratched the surface of the network of family and personal relationships through which the Nehru Dynasty has completely dominated and controlled the entire intellectual, historian and journalist landscape of India. And we haven't even talked about the monumental wealth or the blackmailing secrets. All because the one single dynasty got to rule over India for almost 60 years uninterrupted. It matters a LOT. Almost all BJP or even neutral journalists have been slowly thrown out of their jobs due to pressure from the Congress and the Nehru family. Even the great venerable Ramnath Goenka, frustrated and broken by repeated I-T raids and ED investigations ultimately had to fire Arun Shourie twice from the Indian Express, which was once the best Indian newspaper in the 1970s and 80s. That was the team -- Goenka the owner, Shourie the editor, and S.Gurumurthy the fearless journalist, that brought political heavyweights likeIndira Gandhi down on her knees and even took on corporate bulls likeDhirubhai Ambani. The Congress party essentially owns and controls every single mainstream media house in India, including Hindustan Times, The Times of India, NDTV, CNN-IBN, The Hindu, Tehelka, Outlook, Aajtak, News24, Amar Ujala etc,. Personal relationships have been built, blackmail-worthy secrets have been recorded, and monumental wealth has been accumulated all by the one single Nehru Dynasty (and its family-business-cum-political-party Congress) , which maintains its tight iron grip over not just the entire Indian mainstream media, but also deep into our bureaucracy, our governmental institutions, and even our journalism and mass media, colleges and graduation schools
