Arnab Ranjan Goswami (born 7 March 1973) is a controversial Indian journalist and television news anchor, who is the editor and majority owner[2][3] of the news channel Republic TV.[4][5]

Before Republic TV, Goswami was the editor-in-chief and a news anchor of Times Now and ET Now, from 2006 to 2016.[6][7] Previously, he had also served stints at NDTV and The Telegraph. On Times Now, he anchored The Newshour, a live debate at 9 pm (IST) weekdays, which propelled him to widespread fame.[8][9] He also hosted a special television programme Frankly Speaking with Arnab.[10][11] On 1 November 2016, Goswami resigned as Editor-in-Chief of Times Now.[5][12] His news channel Republic TV was launched on 6 May 2017.[13][14]

His journalism has received widespread criticism, from accusations of practicing biased reporting in favor of the Bharatiya Janata Party to uncritical reproduction of government narratives and stifling of dissent, under the pretext of nationalism. Republic TV has been also compared to Fox News.

Goswami had won the Ramnath Goenka Award for Excellence in Journalism (TV) in 2008.

Early life and education

Family

Goswami was born in Guwahati, Assam on 7 March 1973[15] to an Assamese family.[16][17]

His paternal grandfather Rajani Kanta Goswami was a lawyer.[17] His maternal grandfather, Gaurisankar Bhattacharyya, was an elected legislator from the Communist Party of India and served as the leader of the opposition in Assam for many years.[17][18][19] Goswami's father Manoranjan Goswami served in the Army[17] before joining the Bharatiya Janata Party; he had lost the 1998 Lok Sabha Polls for the Guwahati constituency to Congress candidate Bhubaneshwar Kalita.[20] Goswamy's mother is Suprabha Gain-Goswami, an author.[21][22]

Goswami's maternal uncle, Siddhartha Bhattacharya is the incumbent BJP MLA from Gauhati East constituency; he was the head of the Assam unit of the party before Sarbananda Sonowal took over in 2015.[23][24]

Education

An army officer's son, he attended schools across various cities and passed his 10th Standard board exams from St Mary's School in Delhi Cantonment and his 12th Standard board exams from Kendriya Vidyalaya in Jabalpur Cantonment.[25] Goswami has a Bachelor's (Hons.) in Sociology from the Hindu College in Delhi University.[26][27] In 1994 Goswami completed his Master's in Social Anthropology from St. Antony's College, in Oxford University,[28] where he was a Felix Scholar.[25]

In 2000, Goswami was a Visiting D C Pavate Fellow at the International Studies Department at Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge University.[29]

Personal life

Goswami is married to Samyabrata Ray Goswami[30][31] and they have a son.[32]

Career

The Telegraph and NDTV

Goswami started his career with The Telegraph in Kolkata; less than a year later, he moved to Delhi and joined NDTV.[33][34][17] Arnab has mentioned of having a strong connection with the city, despite his exceptionally short stint.[17]

In NDTV, he anchored daily newscasts including News Tonight, a programme telecast on DD Metro.[35] Newsnight, hosted by him[36] won him an award for the Best News Anchor of Asia 2004 in the 2004 Asian Television Awards.

In 2002, he wrote a book -- Combating Terrorism: The Legal Challenge.[37][38]

Times Now

In 2006, Goswami left NDTV to join the newly-launched Times Now news channel, as the editor-in-chief .[39]

His show The Newshour is aired at 9 pm with live news coverage, which has featured notable personalities like Parvez Musharraf.[40] He also hosts a special programme Frankly Speaking with Arnab, which has featured personalities such as Benazir Bhutto[41] and former UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown,[42] Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai, retired head of state of the Tibetan Government in Exile Dalai Lama, former United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and was the first to interview Prime Minister Narendra Modi since he took office in 2014.[43]

On 1 November 2016, Goswami resigned as the Editor-in Chief of Times Now.[5][44]

Republic TV

Goswami is the Managing Director, Editor-in-Chief and co-founder of the news channel called Republic TV which was launched on 6 May 2017.[45][46]

Reception

Arnab and his style of journalism, has been subject to massive criticism.[47][48][49][50][51]

Modi’s supporters often get their news from Republic TV, which features shouting matches, public shamings, and scathing insults of all but the most slavish Modi partisans. Founded in 2017 with B.J.P. support, Republic TV stars Arnab Goswami, a floppy-haired Oxford graduate who acts as a kind of public scourge for opponents of Modi’s initiatives.

In a typical program, from 2017, Goswami mentioned a law mandating that movie theatres play the national anthem, and asked whether people should be required to stand; his guest Waris Pathan, a Muslim assemblyman, argued that it should be a matter of choice.

Why can’t you stand up? - Goswami shouted at Pathan. Before Pathan could get out an answer, he yelled again, Why can’t you stand up? What’s your problem with it?
Pathan kept trying, but Goswami, his hair flying, shouted over him:- I’ll tell you why, because—I’ll tell you why. I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you why. Can I tell you? Then why don’t you stop, and I’ll tell you why? Don’t be an anti-national! Don’t be an anti-national! Don’t be an anti-national!...

Dexter Filkins, "Blood and Soil in Narendra Modi's India". The Newyorker. 2 December 2019.

He has been noted for his opinionated reporting[52][53] in support of Bharatiya Janata Party[54] and Hindutva across a wide spectrum of situations[55][56] including by uncritical reproduction of government narratives,[57][58][59][60][61] avoiding criticism of figures from the ruling party (BJP)[62] and presenting political opponents in a negative light.[63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74] Arnab has been also linked with the popularization of the neologisms — Urban Naxal and Anti-national — to denote those critical to right wing sentiments or the government, in a bid to evoke hyper-nationalism among the audience.[75][76][73][77][78] Attempts to quell communal tensions through irresponsible reporting containing religious overtones have been alleged.[75]

Republic TV has been since compared to North Korean media for it's extreme pro-government affinity and muzzling of dissent;[79][80] noted political scientist Christophe Jaffrelot and journalist Dexter Filkins have compared it to Fox News, an American TV channel that practices biased reporting in favor of the Republican Party.[81][74] Vanita Kohli-Khandekar, over Business Standard, noted it to be a "noisy, chaotic place where coherent debate without shouting, screaming and name-calling is impossible";[82] others have noted of its shows to be a "battle of babble", judgmental, brash and hawkish.[83][84][85] Vaishnavi Chandrashekhar, in a Foreign Policy article, noted its coverage of the 2019 India-Pakistan conflict, to put jingoism ahead of journalism.[86]

Fact checkers have documented him, and his channels to have propagated outright fake or dubious news, on multiple occasions.[87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94][95][96][97]

Controversies

Tharoor defamation case

On 26 May 2017, MP Shashi Tharoor filed a defamation case in the Delhi High Court against Goswami in connection with Republic TV's story the alleged truth behind the death of Shashi's wife Sunanda Pushkar, where his channel claimed that Tharoor was closely linked with his wife's death.[98][99] On 29 May 2017, The Delhi High Court issued notice to Arnab and his news channel Republic TV over Shashi Tharoor's defamation plea, stating "Bring down the rhetoric."[100] On 6 March 2019, the Delhi High Court dismissed Goswami and the Republic TV's petition that sought to quash a court's order to register a First Information Report against them.[101]

Remark over Keralites

On 25 August 2018, according to The Week news magazine, Arnab Goswami was lambasted on social media after a 30-second video clip of him purportedly calling "a group" the "most shameless bunch of Indians I have ever seen" went viral on social media while discussing blocking foreign aid destined for the flood hit state of kerala.[102] He further added the people who are criticising the government of India in this regard are 'anti-national', 'paid agents' and 'shameless'.This been subjected to the wrath of Malayalis in social media. Keralites have showered the Facebook and Twitter accounts of Republic TV and Arnab Goswami with ridiculing comments in protest.[103] After thorough fact-checks by several news portals, it was finally revealed that Goswami's "most shameless bunch of Indians I have ever seen" comment did not refer to Keralites but he was actually targeting the "Tukde-Tukde Break India forces", "Leftists" and some twitter handles that spread fake news about the 700 crore flood relief aid from the UAE.[102]

News Broadcasting Standards Authority (NBSA) censure

On 30 August 2018, News Broadcasting Standards Authority (NBSA) of India demanded Republic TV a full-screen apology on its news channel for the use of the words 'vulgar thug', 'lewd', 'sexist', 'pervert', 'goon', 'hyena' and 'anti-Indian' for A. Singh by Arnab Goswami. According to The Wire, Goswami's Republic TV reportedly "removed the video from its website and YouTube account" after receiving the complaint.[104][105] Republic TV alleged that A. Singh was harassing its TV reporter Shivani Gupta, refused to apologise on air, and filed an appeal to the NBSA demand.[106]

Gujarat Riot Reporting

During a speech Arnab claimed that his vehicle was attacked and windows broken by a mob holding 'trishuls' about 50 meters from the then chief minister Narendra Modi's residence while he was reporting Gujarat riots in 2002. He claimed that the mob started questioning what religion they belong to and let them go afterwards as 'there was nobody from the minority community with us' . However, later it was revealed that Arnab's claim was baseless and the incident actually happened with Rajdeep Sardesai and Arnab was not covering Ahmedabad and was not even in Gujarat when the incident happened. [107] [108]

Awards

Goswami had won the Ramnath Goenka Award for Excellence in Journalism (TV) in 2008.[109]
