Hafta-85: Should it be #IndiaFirst or #JournalismFirst

Supreme Court's notice to Karnataka regarding the Cauvery keeps both Karnataka and Tamil Nadu on the edge, but was the media coverage a little too hyperbolic? Also, is 'Why no pellet guns?' a justified question? RSS generated heat with Kerala over festival myths​​ and caused a debate over what precisely is the nature of Onam. ​Indian Express did ​superb ​​investigative reporting (once again) on Jan Dhan ​One​-Rupee Trick. Indian media showered all their attention on A​am ​A​admi ​P​arty​, Pakistan and Balochistan. ​​Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal​ got into a Twitter brawl with Shekhar Gupta and Rahul Kanwal (​​does ​AAP need a better PR team​? Yes​). Pictures of Dhaka's streets filled with blood​-​red water raises the age old question of sacrificing rituals once again. Join Anand Ranganathan, Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan and Deepanjana Pal, along with our guest this week Dhanya Rajendran, Editor-in-chief of The News Minute, to discuss all this and much more on this week's Hafta.For references visit:http://www.newslaundry.com/2016/09/16/hafta-85-should-it-be-indiafirst-or-journalismfirst/
