What are you talking about..? Sanjay just did a huge favor to BJP...

Just wonder how will Brahmins + Bhumihars react in UP when Modi slams Congress for disrespecting " Pandit" Atal Bihari Vajpayee..?
Oh Man... I don't care about how this will play out with electorates. But this spokesperson who joined Congress only recently acts as if he is carrying the whole party single-handedly on his shoulders in-front of media.. & trying to be one man crusader with his vile & venomous rhetoric. Guy is so patronizing, I feel like smacking him right between his eyes!
 
Kejriwal beats Modi, Rahul in prime-time TV news coverage - The Times of India

NEW DELHI: In yet another example of David beating Goliath, Aam Aadmi Party supremo Arvind Kejriwal has secured the highest coverage in TV news during prime time, followed by BJP's Narendra Modi and Congress's Rahul Gandhi in early days of elections, according to a study.

The study, by CMS Media Lab after analysing five top news channels, shows that while Kejriwal has received 429 minutes or 28.19 per cent of the time given during 8 to 10pm from March 1 to 15, BJP's prime ministerial candidate has secured 356 minutes (23.98 per cent).

The Gandhi family scion has received 72 minutes of coverage (4.76 per cent), followed by RJD's Lalu Prasad at 46 minutes (3.05 per cent) and MNS founder Raj Thackeray at 33 minutes (2.20 per cent), the study says about the news coverage of these top leaders.

The channels used for the study were — Aaj Tak, ABP News, Zee News, NDTV 24X7 and CNN-IBN.

"Rahul Gandhi has received 6 times and 5 five less coverage as compared to Kejriwal and Modi respectively ... The coverage demolished popular myth of 2014 Lok Sabha elections that Modi is media and media is Modi ... as Arvind Kejriwal toppled Narendra Modi in news coverage," CMS Media Lab said.

JDU senior leader and Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar secured sixth slot with 2.01 per cent of news coverage, followed by TMC chief and West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee at seventh (1.67 per cent) and Samajwadi Party chairperson Mulayam Yadav at eighth rank (1.65 per cent).

Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav received 24 minutes of news coverage during the said period to secure ninth slot while AAP leader Shazia Ilmi got 18 minutes to clinch the 10th spot, the study says.

In terms of parties, BJP has emerged as the number one political outfit, beating AAP by a narrow margin. BJP got 369 minutes of TV news coverage, or more than one-third of the time cornered by the top 10 parties.

Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party stood second with 345 minutes or 31.37 per cent share, followed by Congress at third rank with 193 minutes or 17.51 per cent share.

SP secured fourth position, MNS fifth, Shiv Sena sixth, RJD seventh, TMC eighth, BSP ninth and DMK the 10th slot. RJD, TMC, BSP and DMK received less than 1.5 per cent of TV news coverage each, the data shows.

In terms of issues/subjects of TV news coverage, "personality profiles" emerged as the most covered, followed by "Hindutva", political party, development, corruption, public policy and governance, among others.

"Interestingly, Hindutva is one of the top issues; this was expected after the announcement of Modi as PM candidate," says CMS Media Lab.

CMS Media Lab says it has arrived at the figures based on coverage time given to election topics/subjects.

Even after this AAPtards will say kejri has been blacked out by media:hitwall: :crazy:
 
I have not been able to follow much of the news for past few days but i think now we are pretty close to what we want, so I wanna say one thing.

Yaar eik dhakha aur maar,
Banake rahenge Modi sarkaar.
