For the last few weeks I am going through all the views of you all. It's heartening to read good opinion about DD. As pointed out by all about the loudness and immature presentation of news on pvt channels I would like to mention one thing that our media especially the electronic one is still in a very primary stage and in this age of trps and breaking news nobody is bothered about the quality, news value or the authenticity of the contents just chep do wala attitude hai. But on DD or AIR you will never find these kind of stuff. So gentlemen thanks for appreciating the efforts of govt channel.
Regards.

I am in total agreement with above except that boycotting these channels or such debates will not serve any purpose. The only plus side can be to know the caliber and mentality of various panelists, some of those have major role in decision making at the highest level and decide the destiny of the country ,some of them like Mr. Parathasarthi, TSR Subramanian, Ajit Doval and some of our senior officers have the experience and insight of the Govt's working and international affairs. They do add some value to these programs despite untimely intervention by the anchor or other unruly panelists.
The DD programs be it the News, Panel Discussions, talk shows and the cultural programs have rich contents and add some value. One of the important aspects is DD's excellent coverage of the Regional cultures-folk music, folk dance and the ancient sculptures. The sad part is the bias most of us carry against DD, its some thing to do with a clear preference to whatever said or done by the "White Skin".
Internal circulation of these mails have no impact over the anchors or those who prepare these program, but if these opinions find some way of reaching the general public and the TV anchors, it might have some effect on the concerned people..They will certainly read through and take some corrective action. They will not simply ignore the views of a General Officer.The DD programs be it the News, Panel Discussions, talk shows and the cultural programs have rich contents and add some value.

Fully agree with you, General, we must boycott these noisy and mindless anchors and the channels that engage them.Doordarshan is the best today in India. They have quietly improved and appear so dignified in comparison. Yes, the LokSabha and the Rajya Sabha channels are really good.Parsa

I think it lies in TRPs. If that falls for a channel, the anchors may have to do some self enquiry. Also we are not a captive audience and need not watch these channels. We can switch from them to Door Darshan and local regional & international channels. Not being a Doordarshan fan earlier- I am pleasantly surprised by their news coverage and in particular, impressed by their Lok Sabha Channel and a morning programme ~Aj Savere. So why not let the noisy anchors carry on and we seek information and mature discussions elsewhere. This of course should not stop us from complaining to our Broadcasting Corporation as Ramu has already suggested.Regards, SK PillaiLt Gen(Retd) SK Pillai,PVSM';Vichitra', A/1-B, Jawahar Nagar,Trivandrum-695003T; 0471-2724935 ; M: 9447811665On 3 February 2015 at 05:38, Gaur J K <gaurjk@hotmail.com> wrote:Dear Mr dutta,
We are in a situation whether we take it or leave it. Individually we feel helpless as we have become so much used to the print and video/audio news . unfortunately there is no strong civil society institutions to take on the media for the rubbish they dish out. You see a boy being maulted by a tiger and no one questions what the the photographer doing merrily clicking rather than raise a hue and cry. You have instances of two famous anchors being a part of infamous radia tapes. After an initial hue and cry they were quite rehabilitated. Media can give you full details on financials of any corporate entity. But do you find similar details for any newspaper or TV chanel?
Have fun and enjoy the show. Between media and govt. The policy is you scratch my back and I scratch yours.

These channels are all owned with sweeping stakes by global media moguls and yet all we get to see is "bizarre showdown" and "high decibel sensationalized cacophony" that is in stark contrast with the three news channels, named by you, where even the most "heart breaking" news and debates are presented with elan and poise that the situation deserves, considering the global ramifications.

>>>>>>> Obviously, the anchors in English news TV media who conduct the debates have no in depth knowledge or specialisation in any field. However, they seem to think that they can talk on any subject whether it is economics, politics, science and technology, crime investigation, culture, foreign policy, sports, and what not. It is not an exaggeration to say that their knowledge is half baked , which is there for all to see but these anchors do not seem to know.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> They seem to have a set of people who are called to participate in debates and they seem to be available all the time at their beck and call. With many participants , most of whom are directly or indirectly involved in politics and not in any way better than the anchors in their analytical ability, the debate is marked by lung power rather than substance. The anchor often matches the participants in the lung power, showing no mercy for the viewers. Certainly, intelligent people with facts and figures, who want to observe decorum ,cannot have their say in full in these debates, which viewers may be eager to listen.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Most of the viewers helplessly watch these debates and keep on changing from one channel to another, wondering whether one channel would be better than the other. This rarely happens.

>>>>>>> Fortunately, only a fraction of Indian citizens understand English communication and amongst those who know English, only a small segment have the patience to watch entire debates but the anchors do not care. They seem to whimsically assume that the helpless viewers will watch anything and everything.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Of course, the worst of the anchors in English news TV media are Arnab Goswami and Karan Thapar, who want to dominate the debate and assume that they know everything and exhibit streaks of arrogance and impoliteness. They put questions and when the participants respond, they cut them and put more questions and shout so much that no one can hear what the participants say. These anchors do not seem to realise that they are so uncivilised in their behaviour.
