I thought the speech of Palki Sharma yesterday¹ and today’s TOI editorial page opinion column The right word: Terrorist by Arnab Ray*² both deserved a similar reply to that 99% of the MSM cannot try to pretend as if they are on a high pedestal and doing a great service except that they can spread their tentacles unlike the other pillars like legislature, judiciary, and bureaucracy, which have national boundaries and are bound to answerability.
My reply on Twitter is as below plus the PDF as slides link given*3
Journalism, MSM 99% 'everywhere,' soaks info in secretions of narratives and opinions, packaging them with sensationalism. In media, there is no right word. Denotations and connotations have become distortions and contortions. Neutral journalism is like pro-abortion condoms.
