TV Newsance Ep 136: TRP ka naach, in the name of Ram and SSR

This week, we look at the whole “Justice for SSR” sham a year after the actor’s death. Republic TV and Arnab Goswami made this their primetime agenda for three whole months last year, but have quietly moved on from the “murder mystery” story now. Ditto for Navika Kumar of Times Now. So was it all a perfect conspiracy hatched on TV news to keep you distracted from real problems?

Also, this week the Ayodhya land deal made headlines and Zee News jumped in to do what they do best: anchor Aman Chopra questioned Samajwadi Party instead of the Ram temple trust.

Watch.
