IT IS WRONG TO BAN WEBSITES FROM REPORTING
by deepak dhanesh on Apr 09, 2008 05:10 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

No it is incorrect and other news media should protest and stand up. There should be a boycott from the other media as well. Barring any one from reporting is equivalent to stifling press freedom. Reporting is the primary right of a news network, irrespective of the medium. The websites must use a recent supreme court judgement where, new agencies were allowed to use ESPNs video footage. How can a news network not be allowed to report? It's a big shame for India and to come from a organisation that has a MP as its president is scary and pathetic.
