The peril of Indian journalists (people, time)

[Cida]

Not only in India, of course.

Railing Against India’s Right-Wing Nationalism Was a Calling. It Was Also a Death Sentence.
How the journalist Gauri Lankesh became a casualty of India’s increasingly intolerant politics.
She was more vulnerable than she sounded on the page. She reminded one friend of a sparrow: her head topped with a feathery whorl of short gray hair, bursting with noisy argument but fundamentally gentle.
The Committee to Protect Journalists has been keeping track of 35 cases of Indian journalists murdered specifically for their work since 1992, and only two of these cases have resulted in a successful conviction. “There seems to be a license that people feel to beat up or attack journalists in India.”

It is. And OP if you think the journalists are bad, you must look at the media. Just youtube "hilarious Indian news(I made this up but try)". They give trashy soap operas a run for their money as far as entertaining the masses go.
