I have seen most newspapers are supported by anyone of the leading political parties. But the problem is that many realities are hidden and people may need to read more than 2 papers. What's your opinion? Do newspapers really need political support??? Why can't they stand alone and follow the true path only???? :evil:

No they cannot fear the political parties news papers will work only for them in fear.

Can you explain?
I can't understand anything B) :(

Same question is also arise in my mind what does it mean Gabbar. :) :) :)
By newspapers politicians never get feared. They will only fear the newspapers with their powers.
We have a very powerful newspaper group - Anandabazar - its owner has a unique sense of selling news!!

Yes, we may be able to find a few.
But the question arises, do newspapers fear political parties?
Can't they stay alone?????/ :evil:

Actually each party fears opposing newspapers. Isn't it?
Ideally the press must realize the importance of remaining uninfluenced by narrow considerations in a functioning democracy to discharge its true role in shaping up popular opinions!

Ya they feel fear because they know if newspaper come in action then they turn everything bad for that political parties.
Same news may be narrated in two ways in two newspapers. Desabhimani is communist party newspaper.
Leading newspapers of our state are Malayala Manorama and Mathrubhumi. Both are against communist party. I think, Mathrubhumi supports BJP and Manorama supports Congress, though not sure. Both are not party newspapers, yet they support indirectly. Both are nowadays trying to post anything about T.P. on the front page, nowadays thus hunting Communists :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Yes in my state same situation is arises due to the presences of various Newspapers.Some are against one party but other are not.This thing continue to happen..... :S :S :S :S :S :S
Newspapers are generally owned and run by corporate houses. They may back one or other political party depending on owners' policy or interest.

Such papers get enough advertisement from business concerns. They need not support any political party blindly. In fact, most of the national level newspapers are free from political grip but support corporate interests.

Small newspapers especially Non English papers support the ruling parties in states for patronage and advertisements.

There are also a number of newspapers and periodicals owned and managed by political parties.

Ya you are right sir and that is reason sometime newspaper is full of political parties news..
Newspapers get major part of news from Indian and foreign news agencies and have very little to manipulate news. At best, they may highlight certain news more and give less space to other news with a view to support one or the other party.

The editorials and articles are designed to support corporates and certain political parties. The newspapers do not generally support or oppose a political party but follow balancing tactics. They also change their view when ruling party changes.

This is the main fact about newspaper.They only support rising stars..
I do think that politicians support newspapers. They will be scared if any revolutionary news written against the politics. That y politicians keep newspaper organisation in their fist.
But there may be some good newspapers like Anandbazaar as mentioned before who doesnt require political support for selling the news.

You are substantially correct! Now big corporate houses are holding the whip!
Actually, sometimes we are really confused when we read entirely different from what we see on TV. It happens most for political incidents :woohoo:
