Fourth estate

I don't know whether it's my sole,personal opinion or this really is the case.

The quality of Indian News Channel has degraded a lot. I find sometimes news more hilarious than informative. Now days they are showing clips of other television soaps and dedicating a full coverage to them.

Still this i don't think is harmful at all. What i am afraid of that these news agencies are now days shaping public opinion. With respect to freedom of speech and freedom of respect, i think news channels should show all news with a neutral angle. They have no right to picture someone as guilty,this is strictly duty of law.

What's happening is nowadays reporters are mixing to much of their personal opinions in news.
Every news reporter should be strictly rational while reporting something. though they may express their point of view in debates, separate articles and editorials.

Press it utilising its Right to Freedom but somehow in race of TRPs and commercialisation they are not fulfilling their duty of being fair.
