Shekhar Gupta quits as editor-in-chief of Indian Express

[AugenBlick]

thats the whole problem,,,,people are labelling everyone who dosen't support bjp as a traitor and this is bullshit.
just read any one his editorials,the guy was very good and neutral

Hey, relax, we were joking , we are not labelling everyone a s traitor, just amused at so many resignations suddenly after Modi became PM.Compells you think, why all of a sudden?

Wow are you not ignorant
Listen kid he was the editor in chief.
That means non factual reporting goes through him.
Do you know how these news trader worked.
Just like MMS was the shoulder for Sonia's national pillage, these editor in chief's were the MMS at their respective papers.
They condoned the misinformation brigade and got juniors to write that sh*t for them.
e.g. even now they write in 2002 hindu extremists thought that muslims burned godhra coaches. Exaggerated casualties (2000 in place of 750), even though 31 convictions have taken place.
How is this different from being Manmohan Singh?

Indian media is in a overhauling mode, & the rumor has it... Mr Arnab Goswami is negotiating a deal with Network18.

What counts as real news? Shouting SICKULAR CONGRESSI over and over again at the top of your lungs?
Lol

Lol

telling about the problems around all parts of the country like covering NE and dograland..

Or maybe simet b ing about soldier's situation at the border, infiltrations taking place in eastern borders, etc.

Better than boot licking one family all day long.

That first sentence really resonated with me

Not so much.
He never criticized Modi as such or used the secular-brigade as such.
He was definitely more reserved, but was never pro BJP.
He also was on good terms with NDTV and used to host their "walk the talk" show. And NDTV is obviously the bastion of congress.

Seriously,

Have you people ever read Indian express?

Their editorial columns were extremely critical of Congress even at time when BJP was licking it's wounds and not even a peep against government came from them.

Talveen Singh's Sunday column was extremely critical of Sonia and Rahul identifying them as root cause of everything that is wrong with India, both socially and Economically.

Surjit S bhalla's columns were most potent defense ever mounted for Gujrat model demolishing libtard propaganda with statistics and blaming Sonia and NAC to the point that Congress got so irritated by him that Abhishek manu sanghvi asked him to join BJP on live TV.

Shekhar Gupta himself was extremely critical of Congress terming it as an scourge on middle class and constantly writing against dual power centers in Congress, NAC and Pseudo secularism.

Dude what more a journalist could do? Do you expect them to were skirt and cheerlead for Modi?

Not being afraid to say we are in deep $hit.
Not censoring out riots.
Not appeasing terrorists on TV (hint: Afzal guru.)
Not praising the naked emperors.
Releasing 2013 census data.(or campaigning for it to be released)
Releasing 1962 war data.(or campaigning for it to be released)
the list can go on...

OK
I hold my opinion back, lets see if more details emerge in a few days.
The timing is very shady. And he is not exactly moving to the citadel of unbiased reporting either.

They are still going to be biased towards one party or the other. But now at-least we can expect some balance in terms of right & left leaning channels! Till now all those major channels were propagating & sponsoring the ideology & interest of only 'sickular' flag bearers!

Any biased role of paper during election and pre election campaign ?...or act as Pro Congress...
