Telugu Media Under Fire for Alleged Bias in Political Coverage
- Sakshi news favors Jagan Mohan Reddy and critical coverage of his sister Sharmila underscores media bias
- Leading Telugu newspapers like Eenadu and Andhra Jyothy also exhibit bias in coverage due to political leanings
- Social media provides clarity and exposes fiction versus facts in mainstream media reporting
- Negative coverage of Ambedkar statue erection in Vijayawada aims to dent Jagan Mohan Reddy’s popularity
- Journalism driven by profit motives of journalists rather than public service leads to a bitter, distorted democracy
