Episode description
Online media regulation has garnered significant attention in debates and discussions today, following an Information and Broadcasting Ministry order to form a 10-member committee “to frame and suggest a regulatory framework for online media/news portals including digital broadcasting and entertainment/infotainment sites and news/media aggregators”.In the light of this contentious move, Medianama organised a discussion at the India Habitat Centre in Delhi. It hosted a panel consisting of media and law personalities - HR Venkatesh from International Centre for Journalists, Durga Raghunath, CEO of Indian Express Digital, Abhinandan Sekhri, Co-founder of Newslaundry, Siddharth Varadarajan, founder of The Wire and former editor-in-chief of The Hindu, along with Amba Kak, Tech and Legal policy fellow at Mozilla.
