Please... discuss your criticism before posting on the NDTV page and don't troll. Some proof of the communist agenda wouldn't hurt! Laxstar5 07:19, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Criticism

Please do not add original research to this section. Furthermore, also do not copy verbatim into this section without proper copyrights. Just because it is criticism does not warrant strong POV additions, too. See WP:NPOV and WP:NOR. Gnusbiz 11:20, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

On December 3, 2008, Admiral Sureesh mehta, Indian Navy chief of Staff openly criticized NDTV Coverage as being responsible for the deaths of three soldiers in Kargil.[1] NDTV's Barkha Dutt countered by quoting the testimony of General Malik:

“I would urge Admiral Mehta to read General VP Malik's book on the Kargil conflict wherein General Malik refers to some malicious rumours that implied that media coverage could have been responsible for fatalities. General Malik clearly clarifies that given that the army was using satellite phones, more than sixty of them, and that the rocket launchers used by the army were emitting more light than what 100s of cameras manage together, this was nothing but ill-informed rumour-mongering. Admiral Mehta should at least get his facts right.”

However it should be noted that since NDTV claims to be the only news channel to broadcast to Pakistan[[2]] , Barkha Dutt has not countered the possibility that Indian Army positions could have been given away by the news broadcast itself. Cesar.medic (talk) 12:50, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Trivia

Don't think the "NDTV" featured in Napalm Death's video is New Delhi Television. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arun.arumugam (talk • contribs) 19:07, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

Where is the source==

NDTV is widely known to be a pro Congress(I)supporter and systematically boosts the party in its programs

Can you give some examples?

Sure, Its News Coverage is significantly pro congress(I).Please kindly watch the channel and you can be a judge for your self, provided you are not biased towards any political party. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Editor3008 (talk • contribs) 10:24, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Any criticism of government inaction during the recent Mumbai attacks were termed as Politicization by NDTV and Barkha Dutt in particular —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.0.203.45 (talk) 14:31, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Prannoy Roy doesn't even try to hide his glee in the discussions aftermath of the 3 state election results which marginally favoured Congress —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.0.203.45 (talk) 14:33, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Please find a reliable resource (see WP:RELIABLE for details) to support this view before adding it to the article. Shanata (talk) 09:04, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Please use correct references - Removed verbiage on anti hindu bias

All,

I have removed the following line.

"NDTV's core-competence is in relentless anti-Hindu propaganda. Its news channels NDTV24x7 and NDTVIndia are used as anti-Hindu propaganda vehicles."

The You Tube video, which in itself is not a valid reference is already removed from You Tube. Please refrain from posting your personal opinion. Also, back your edits by facts.

A Global Characteristic

Bias amongst liberal media is not exclusive to NDTV. Most broadcasters in the US are very openly biased towards Democrats, except perhaps FOX. NDTV does not even claim to be liberal; The centrists amongst its top management have founded new channels, the top brass that remains has leftist leanings. To blame and overtly criticize them for the lack of a more nationalistic (not jingoistic, we have enough of those) network seems unfair.--Sayitaintsojoe (talk) 10:41, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

• The trivia is uncharacteristic of a WP entry, esp for a Stub. I reckon the relation with Prakash Karat is not exactly trivial(except the co-brother-in-law phrase...wott?)--Sayitaintsojoe (talk) 13:46, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Article Neutrality

Some of this article, especially the current versions of the introduction and corporate profile sections, does not appear to meet wikipedia's neutrality policy. Please see WP:NPOV and improve. Shanata (talk) 09:18, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

The Article about NDTV is wholly biased towards NDTV and Congree party.

Each sentence is a lie. Some examples.

Popular talk shows include 'Big Fight', 'India 60 Minutes', 'Walk The Talk', 'We The People'. They are not popular. What is the measure ?

It launched the 'United for Justice' campaign seeking support from the citizens to demand justice in three high-profile unsolved murder cases Jessica Lal, Priyadarshini Mattoo, Nitish Katara leading to the conviction of the accused. Completely False. No where in the judgement NDTV is mentioned. It is self claimed by NDTV.

Its campaigns like the '7 Wonders of India' and 'Toyota Telethon' have garnered public support and are a commendable attempt at preserving the environment and India's natural heritage. Who commended ? What public support except self claims of NDTV or may be some congress leaders.

Its coverage of starvation-deaths, malnutrition and other human rights violations has forced the government into action. Which one and what action ? In fact in when so many farmers suicided in Maharashtra NDTV almost silent on the topic as it was ruled by congress. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaifazam (talk • contribs) 08:34, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Disparaging content

I'm not sure how it managed to get to this state, but I've just removed large amounts of clearly disparaging, unsourced content from the article, which was making unfounded accusations of racism and government conspiracy directed at the subject of the article. Please watch out for this material. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 09:20, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

The main vandal has been indef blocked now, so hopefully this content won't reappear. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 09:38, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Oddly written criticism

The section on the "26/11 Mumbai Terrorist Attacks" is very oddly written and doesn't seem to cite a relevant source.

I think overall it might be beneficial to start putting things like this (and other things referenced on this talk page) into a "Controversy" section rather than reporting it as undisputable fact. A good starting example might be Fox News Channel's controversy section.
