Media engaged in diffusing misleading reports: Mishra


Raipur, August 23, 2012

Panchayat and Rural Development Department director Subhash Mishra says that the media is engaged in diffusing misleading reports and hence the common people cannot get actual information. “Nowadays, misleading reports on the name of crime, entertainment and religion are rife,” said Mishra while addressing students at a lecture programme organised by journalism department of Mahant Laxminarayan Das College on Thursday.
“In the current era, the media cannot tell complete fact. Under pressure of cut-throat competition, instead of giving evident information in terms of report, the media tinges its prejudices in the matter before presenting it,” Mishra said.
The college principal Dr Devashish Mukherjee said journalism had widened and entered in every dimension of life. “The information too has become categorised,” he said.
Senior lecturer Mirza Masood said common man has disappeared from journalism.
