Let me start with everyone's favorite Arnab Goswami...
His favorite topics - Pakistan & China
Favorite guests - Boria Majumdar, Maroof Raza
Style - Get at least 8 people on his show and allow only people who toe his line to talk.. others are cut off completely.. most often 30 minutes into the debate, there will be guests, who had not uttered even a word
Most used phrase or should I say most irritating thing that he says - Nation wants to know
Second up - Karan Thapar
His favorite topics - There is nothing like that, he talks about everything
Style - gets 4 guests (or 3 sometimes) and ensures everyone gets a chance to say what they want..
Most irritating thing that he says - can I can I can I can I can I interrupt.. he doesn't allow people to talk anything outside the boundaries that he draws
Next up - Rajdeep Sardesai - Jumping jack
His favorite topics - There is nothing like that, he talks about everything
Favorite guests - Yogeshwar Yadav.. even though he has joined a political party, he comes and conducts surveys for this channel..
Style - He keeps jumping in his seat while talking.. end of the debate, puts up something as editors take.. you will realize then that all the questions that he had asked in the program will be linked exactly to this editors take...
Most irritating thing that he says - Fair enough
Barkha Dutt - Wants to portray herself as the Oprah Winfrey of India.. I have stopped watching her program after the farce show that she conducted by inviting Manu Joseph, Swapan Dasgupta, Dilip padgoankar, Sanjaya Baru for an episode of Buck stops here after the Nadia tapes controversy.. She had no regrets about the lobbying that she was doing.. blaming Outlook and Open magazine instead.. maybe its only that she got caught and lots more journalist could be doing the same thing.. but once she was caught she should have at least stepped aside for sometime..

DK sir, a neat analysis of all the anchors and well said about these bunch of jokers who are may be contracted with these channels, as we don't see them elsewhere - i.e the so called 'guests'
ReplyDeleteRaaj - Absolutely spot on about not seeing these guests anywhere else..
