Shekhar Gupta rails against "citizen journalism" and evangelises the need for "trained journalists". All of that's fair enough, but how many of these people who were trained to become journalists, turned out to be trained poodles for some party or the other? What's so great about these so-called journalists, anyway? There are zillions of cases of these trained Indian journalists, TV anchors playing out their biases, botching up reportage. Just because we are forced to read their opinions, watch them on TV, doesn't make them experts on every topic under the sun.

At first I was like, why is Shekhar on his channel - but I saw the interview, and it was actually good. He talked his mind freely. People on both sides of the spectrum MUST WATCH this..
Hats off to Shekhar Sir's professionalism with all his patience through the technical glitches..he is such a great interviewer and an equally great interviewee..always a pleasure when he is so generous with his time
About Diversity, the West sees diversity as a salad bowl and advocates for that model everywhere (It's kinda rich to insist that's the only true model of diversity). BBC describes Indian diversity as a thali, neatly segregated and that doesn't mingle together. I believe, diversity in India is neither a salad bowl, nor a thali - it's a sandwich. Layers, mixed together with each other's flavor and texture contributing to the entire package of a sandwich and yet each layer maintains it's distinctions. This is a good interview. P.S : Please feel free to comment with your favorite Sandwich recipes 😋
@@libshastra Indian or not Indian does not matter mate, it's impossible to understand what India really is, there is a contradiction for everything that you can think of. A truly fascinating country.
@@rishav2463 the contradictions exists because things aren't studied or researched as much they should be. Pew survey is starting to address that under researched aspects of India.
I have some issues with mr gupta on certain things .....but one thing i like about him is that he doesnt put a facade and is outspoken about wat is right and wrong........good conversation ....i like kushal too

Both of you should come together, and do such show every week. This will help to spread more awareness on the various topics from both sides. Really good one
I LOVE the caste-meritocracy debate framed in the sports context. The reason it works is because the 'reservations' is at the grass-root level. No one is promoting a fast bowler of a lower caste ABOVE someone else who is quantifiably better (like it happens in education and jobs)
@@tejamysore3699 Exactly. It has now become a bane in democracy that to get votes, they are doling the reservations. For example in last elections in 2021, the following thing was done in TN by the then AIADMK government. Vanniyar which are the single largest caste(Kshatriya) in TN and the pre-dominant caste in the northern TN. Already due to the various fighting by Dr Ramadoss and PMK, they were moved from BC to MBC category a few decades back. To get more of their votes, what happened was atrocious. They were given 10.5% reservations for "them alone" in the MBC pool and rewarded their ally PMK. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservation_policy_in_Tamil_Nadu#1990_-_present Which means not only are they guaranteed 10.5% they are also in the lower "merit" category especially in education. It is one of the reasons that despite this pandering, ADMK lost as other BCs and MBCs were pissed off. The current DMK Govt is also pandering to that and keeping that stupidity going. indianexpress.com/article/cities/chennai/tn-government-justifies-provision-of-10-5-reservation-to-vanniyars-7448211/ SG as usual is thinking he is saying something intelligent. May be some "citizen journalist" can make him realize his "intelligence". :-)
Respect to both speakers. Sincere and honest opinion and the difficulty of being a neutral journalist. Question is ,are journalist willing to put their livelihood on the line for the sake of the truth.
I've never seen someone who can explain caste, politics, history, anthropology... literally everything.... with cricket metaphors. SG is genuinely a national treasure :D
@@mohantysobhi Yes i have, especially my maternal family, who came to India surviving Noakhali, with the hope of freedom. But all that has shattered when a state machinery unleashed carnage, death and mayhem upon Hindus in their own homeland, refreshing memories of their own flight. And if that wasn't enough, a "miserable woman" declares celebration of "Khela Hobe"on the anniversary of 'Direct Action day'. So yes it was a lesson for me and I am not happy. But you can stay happy.
I think most of the common people don't give a rat ass about ideology and they stand somewhere in the middle. Like most people support left lining welfare schemes but don't support their land reforms ideas.
Such an amazing conversation! I wish more print journalists were objective. Sg is indeed a national treasure but almost everyone else is heavily heavily biased in print. I want to pay but i just can't get myself to
I remember the time in India, circa 1971-2 when my favorite high school english teacher, EJ Montville, was conducting classes in journalism at Bahadurshah Zaffar Marg, Delhi, for the likes of the nascent India Today mentioned in this video conversation. Indian journalism has indeed come a long way..
So, it took 3 days for utube to recommend this video, even when I am a subscriber of 'The Print'. I might disagree with Shekhar ji on many things but I like 'his kind' of journalism. Meanwhile, it's an amazing podcast with Kushal.👍

He knows economics. That's why he's pro land acquisition bill and farm bills. That's why I love him. Unlike some leftists who know nothing about all of this. And bjp is pathetic in explaining.
Technology has flattened many barriers existing at various industrial spheres including Media to such an extent that, a die hard hard copy avatar name Mr SekharJI is swearing by digital... Great going! All the best..and one more thing.. " Celebrate Divesity".. Wonderful..
Shekar please include language also in the list of things you mentioned. Language is an integral part of every Indian and now tends to divide us more than any other things you mentioned. While religion, caste etc divides us but they are spread across. But language has a fixed area of India and is not shared across. Any linguistic split in India will divide India more than any other differences. So language should be tread with more delicacy than we encounter today. We must protect all our languages because of that. Respect all our languages first and fund their development. You cannot create one language nation in India.
Good analogy that the Indians are in two bunkers shooting at each other while the real truth seekers are in the middle vast terrain getting the bullets and being vulnerable. The India of today has been polarized by our politicians and the public is now clinging to those politicians and the media seem to exploit this also. The Print is a shining example of what a media should do. Indian people should get the wisdom to discern the truth and not get polarized.
I understand Guptaji still has the remnant of Congressness in him, but still he the most impartial and logical journalist in India at this moment. Journalist is not neutral but presentation can be neutral. Another thing is meritocracy is good but if you see , by chance, it imbalance the system and you then bring in partiality into it that’s when it goes wrong. Because there is a statistical and scientific truth of genetics as well
Shekharji, Excellent candidness and acute views on emergence of new trends in journalism. I admire your style of journalism. I sometimses wonders when people from my ideology background compares you or stag you with other hyfenated media. You are trying to walk rope. Sometimes you fall opposite to my opinion but never doubt Print's integrity.
even upper cast also agrees that meritocracy should be the parameter. All lecture on cast by SG based on his myopia of upper cast controls everything & responsible for favoritism.
Activism is not polarization if it is done properly. Activism in terms of real Secularism, anti Casteism, Indian diversity, Democracy, Capitalism etc are all good. It is people who take one extreme position in any of these fields who are polarizing.
I must admire the topics covered by The Print. @Shekhar ji. Do you think Sir that Indian Journalism has moved in the direction of US Journalism wherein certain media outlets openly support the BJP & Certain media outlets openly support the Congress & Left. Has Indian mainstream journalism taken this direction?
Yup. I think the US has picked up a lot of stuff from us. Naked praise of politicians wasn't a feature of US news networks until recently but it was present in Indian news network.
@@libshastra CNN and MSNBC doing open Chaatugiri for Biden has kind of come undone by the Afghan shitstorm but yeah that was extremely cringe to watch when it was happening.
@@libshastra ha? I think you just started watching US media recently lol. 2000s is something that was okish, by the time of Obama it was already highly polarized. Fox vs CNN is older than Republic vs NDTV. Btw you haven't even seen NYTs scandals, they collaborated with Nazis, Japanese bombings, USSRs communists and hid truth most of the time (The Grey lady winked (book) and Mr. Jones (movie), by the way book is reviewed with author by the guest Kushal Mehra in his Carvaka podcast.)
@@libshastra no dude it was present. there were people the media establishment clearly liked and disliked. recent example is between Obama and trump. If you ask someone they probably will have a bad impression of trump while the opposite is true for Obama
lol it was always like that, most of the journalists were in the hands of politicians, (Radia tape scandal - 2008 or something). I think it has just been democratized as Gupta said, you hear from both sides nowadays and pick up more news in the sense, else unless it was big enough, most of the MSMs back then never covered it.
@SG - the old uncle ji giving gyan explanation you gave for cut the clutter @52:15 , that’s the term we use in the family as well - “what is uncle saying today “. You are the ‘Uncle’ who clarifies doubts.
If I admire one indian journalist at present....it is SG..... I hope more centrist view journalism emerge in india..... And journalists should stop imposing their opinions......we r wise enough to differentiate between right and wrong...jus give us the facts...we ll decide wot to do wid it
