Hours after senior journalist Sreenivasan Jain alleged that바카라 웹사이트news channel바카라 웹사이트NDTV took down his story on Amit Shah라이브 바카라 entrepreneur son Jay Shah라이브 바카라 companies on the grounds of further “legal vetting”, the ghost of newsroom censorship has started to stumble바카라 웹사이트out of바카라 웹사이트the closet.
Veteran journalist and once the face of NDTV, Barkha Dutt took to바카라 웹사이트Twitter바카라 웹사이트on Wednesday바카라 웹사이트morning expressing her disdain against the former employer, saying “many of her stories were axed”.
Dutt, in her바카라 웹사이트Twitter post said axing stories at NDTV is not at all a new phenomena and that while working there she had to fight바카라 웹사이트over newswroom censorship바카라 웹사이트on various occasions. “Yes, axing stories at NDTV not new.

The senior journalist then went on to cite instances where바카라 웹사이트she as well as her바카라 웹사이트other colleague라이브 바카라바카라 웹사이트wasmade to sit on their stories or바카라 웹사이트junk바카라 웹사이트it.
She said her interview with P Chidambaram, was axed while other stories manage to create a furor in the otherwise assumed “liberal’ newsroom.

Nitin Gokhale was the former defence correspondent of NDTV, and now a national security analyst who hosts talk shows on Doordarshan.

Terming it as a “hard choice for journalists” Jain then said that he is treating the situation as a “distressing aberration”.
"A situation like this presents journalists with hard choices. For now, I am treating this is as a distressing aberration and have decided to continue to do the journalism that I have always done – on NDTV. All of this has been conveyed to NDTV."
