VOICES
"Broadcasting requires freedom,
technical sagacity, business acumen, opportunism, vision
- a lean meanness. One answer to DD's problems could
be to decentralise. That needs imagination, enterprise,
hardly qualities the government possesses....The National
Democratic Alliance speaks the language of economic
liberalisation. And here we are debating points on autonomy
and accountability for AIR and DD. It's like trying
to capture the air in a bird cage: absurd. Autonomy
may belong to the past but greater government control
is prehistoric. Is Arun Jaitley on the right side of
the future? "
Media Columnist Shailaja Bajpai in The Indian
Express.
"India is not corruptible. It is one of the oldest
cultures along with China and it has tremendous depth.
Indian sport, Indian programming, News and Hollywood
movies are not going to corrupt Indian viewers. "
News Corp boss Rupert Murdoch during the course
of a recorded interview with Star Plus talk show host
Vir Sanghvi.
