But one thing I will give it to News Channels and I actually got to know from that.
In the Editorial of any major newspaper, you won't find any comments against AAP.
AAP has made such a huge network where the Newspapers, especially the Editorial page, can't print against them.
This has been happening from over 2 years.
You can print and write shit against Modi and Rahul, but never against Kejri and his party.

This is something that needs to be worried about.
Put it up on the previous thread, but that got closed because it was hitting 150, so putting it up here again.
There's a nice, easy solution to this that's overlooked.
Ban government ads in both TV channels and newspapers, and no government folks (be it state/central/local municipality) should be allowed to attend conclaves of any kind hosted by the owners of channels.
Do this, and there'll be no incentive or carrot of any kind from the government to the papers, and they can keep their editorial integrity intact. If a platform got ads from any government, how would you expect their reporting to stay neutral?
Bold is also the reason that from a common sense POV, if you have A channel aligned to X party and B channel to Y, one should take A's words a little more seriously when Y is in power and vice versa.
