  • Karan Thapar’s new book, Devil’s Advocate, has got people talking once again about access journalism, New Delhi’s close-knit Lutyens’ circle and the importance of protecting a source. In this interview, Madhu Trehan addresses a host of these issues. About being a Lutyens’ journalist, he responds, "Falling into the Lutyens' category means you are not desi and ganwar and I don't wish to be ganwar in any sense of the term." Thapar has devoted a full chapter on his attempts to uncover the BJP's boycott and refusal to appear on his programme. Madhu reads an article by Thapar where he exposes Narendra Modi as a source and writes of him, "The man I discovered last week is a mere creature - of prejudice, of petty vengeance, of double standards and forked-tongue utterances. The first Mr Modi deserved to be chief minister. The second deserves to be sacked."
    Madhu also asks about the ethics of quoting Pavan Verma without his permission and betraying Sambit Patra who was trying to help him. Thapar also leaked a story to a newspaper about Amitabh Bachchan after his boss demanded he remove that section from the recorded interview. Watch what he has to say.

      It's about a book review affair from 2009. Madhu wrote a book and Karan cut out large chunks of it (and Madhu alleges that he didn't even read the whole thing). Madhu still probably has a grudge against Karan for this.
      Google it up if you don't take my word.

    Since I had no prior opinion on any of these two people I started with thinking Karan was the bad guy here but as the interview progressed it started to settle on me that he's a journalist and people don't tell him things, he takes it out of them. He's doing his job by speaking the truth. However it was such an enjoyable watch because two people were discussing their wildly different povs without anyone raising their voice in the most elegant manner possible. Was a breath of fresh air as a departure from the modern podcast system where just about anyone with a mic can call themselves an interviewer. 🤧

      Adnan Dehlavi Thapar used to do these frivolous face to face interviews with famous people, which were far from intellectual or political, that’s why Madhu even calls him a “talk show host” because he would only ever talk to the “famous” people and personally I have never seen him do any ground reporting for poor people or people who indeed suffer. In a sense all he has has ever been is Simi Garewal with a little more controversy due to political tinges he adds here and there, and with that kind of experience of a chat show host who only did sensationalism he really doesn’t deserve to be a veteran political journalist which he has tried to project very clearly in his book.

    Notwithstanding many comments here, I think this interview is pretty well done. Madhu Trehan offers a mirror to Karan Thapar when she interviews him. Pay attention to the topics and stories she brings up, they are crucial and deserve no different treatment (e.g. the Amitabh interview at the end).
    If you think her 'journalistic skills' or 'interview manners' are not great, you are mistaken. For example, check out her interview of Arun Shourie or Barkha Dutt.

    How can this name calling, one-upmanship, bullying, scoffing, and preaching on the part of Mrs Trehan ever be called an interview? She seems to hate a good number of people, particularly the ones who she considers more capable than herself. One hopes that her journalistic discipline would have enabled her to keep her hatred/contempt under check and ask meaningful questions, but the hope is in vain. The barrage of name calling ultimately seems to have proved counterproductive as it proves Mr Thapar to be incredibly​ articulate and sorted in his thinking.

But why was she dragging on them and constantly calling him names and sort of straight up bullying him to say that he agrees he's a horrible person. What journalistic ethos(blody she was hooting about all the while) was she following? what kinda interview is this? She din't even care for the audience and the nausea it would cause them, which at one point even Karan out of embarrassment asked her to consider. Potraying her god damn personal vendetta in a 47 minute interview seemed legit to this lady. What nonsense!

    As a long time subscriber and an admirer of Madhu, I'm sad to note that the last few interviews that she has conducted, namely the one with Rana Ayyub and this one, have been terribly directionless. The questioning kept hovering on petty issues which hold no relevance to the topic at hand. The adversarial tone didn't add any value to the conversation and simply turned the discussion into a pointless "Tu-Tu-Main-Main", of sorts. I am supremely disappointed.
