If there is no court in the country! The common man’s press cannot be prevented from being cheated by the corporates. So many people have lost lakhs and those who ran this journalism for social welfare have disappeared. Moreover, a friend of mine ran a weekly magazine in Coimbatore and stopped the magazine after losing more than 50 lakhs. After doing this for a few years, they couldn’t keep the magazine going.
Moreover, today’s common man’s newspapers say that some newspapers like People’s Power cannot be given concessions and advertisements even though they have a circulation of millions. Circulation is only when it appears in newspapers, if it comes on the Internet, is it not circulation? Didn’t people read those messages? Do visitors come without reading? Why? The main reason for this is the politics of corporate journalism and television.
Whichever government they come to, they will make a secret political pact with them only for concessions and advertisements. People’s Power has been continuously reporting against it for more than five years. It is not only appearing in the press but also on the Internet. Today, there are about 2 lakh visitors (makkaladikarammedia.com & makkaladhikaram.page) on the website alone.
People are searching for newspapers that reveal the truth, but political parties are doing politics by relying only on these corporate media. Apart from this, in the guise of daily newspapers, news reports praising them will be published. No matter how many injustices and iniquities they are doing in the city, they are good people about them.
The newspaper world, which is saying that it is circulation, is also being deceived into believing that this is the magazine. So, is this a department that can reveal the truth to the people? Or is it a department that hides the facts from the public? The news industry and the corporate press have been such that people are questioning and criticizing the situation.
Not only that, the election manifestos of political parties have become an election manifesto to deceive the people as many impossible election manifestos.
But it is wrong for any newspaper or TV channel to do this for their selfish interests. Has any corporate newspaper or television channel ever highlighted the mistakes of the DMK government that it has not done for the people? Social activists say that if they do not tell, the DIPIR advertisements they will get the next day will be cut. Not only that, they say,
கருப்பு பணத்தை வைத்துக்கொண்டு, ஆரம்பித்த கார்ப்பரேட் பத்திரிக்கை, தொலைக்காட்சிகளே கூலிக்கு மாரடைக்கிறது என்றால்! இந்த சமூக நலனுக்காக,சொந்த பணத்தில் நடத்தி கொண்டு, உழைப்பையும் அதற்காக செலவழித்து, உண்மைகளை மக்களிடம் கொண்டு செல்வதற்கு இந்த பத்திரிகைகள் எவ்வளவு ?ஆளும் கட்சிக்கு எதிராக போராட வேண்டி இருக்கும்? மேலும், சமூகத்திலும் எவ்வளவு போராட வேண்டி இருக்கும்? என்கிறார்கள் .
Besides, the politics of a country does not work with the public interest, the selfish political policies, whether it is the central or state governments, will not do any good to the public. Even now, it is disappointing that the central and state governments have not included any proposals and demands for the social welfare press and journalists in the election manifesto.
People will wake up when the anarchy and corruption in politics is taken to the people. But if they only put up the news for the bus pass, for advertisements, for the news, then they are the press. The press officials would praise it as a big magazine and make a profit out of it. The ruling party will also be good to the people and that is why only those who are in corporate television channels have been included as key functionaries and members of the Press Welfare Board. How much dirty selfish politics of journalism is this? besides
How many hidden struggles, intrigues, obstacles and humiliations have to be faced by the social welfare press to bring all these grievances to the people? All this is the court of law is our only hope that should ultimately save us. That is the last hope of the common man.
Whether it is the common man or the press of the common man, there is no other way. Because if there is no court today, as a Tiruvallur district government official (engineer) said, everyone will vacate us. This is a fact that government officials in other departments have understood, why are the PROs in this news department not understood? besides
The ruling BJP at the Centre and the ruling DMK in the state did not give much importance to this because of the selfish politics of political parties. All they need in secret alliance with this selfish political corporate press and television is moving the coin into top-level politics. Therefore, such newspapers and television channels have moved forward by focusing on politics for their own gains.
How many crores of offers and advertisements will we get for our newspaper and television? This kind of cheap politics is the main reason why the ruling party, corporate press and television have become selfish today’s politics without social concern among the people. As a result, people who vote are deceived by voting every five years. This selfish politics of the country has more than the growth of the wealth of the working people,
How can the wealth of a political party suddenly increase by a thousand times, 500 times, 100 times? Apart from this, today political parties do not even have the ability to do some business or work and eat, knowing only the art of speaking, looting public property according to the law in politics, their political policy and goal is to take many crores of rupees home, from today’s political parties to party leaders, their ability and the politics that continues to cheat the people of Tamil Nadu by cheating the voters.
Corporate journalism and television are supporting this deceptive politics. How many newspapers that are interested in social welfare are published impartially, without political party affiliation? Are its real messages useful to the people? That alone should be given importance.
Why is this people’s tax money being given to newspapers that have no social interest? Circulation is a false rule. How many newspapers print 10,000 copies daily? What is its sales? What is the credit? What is the cost? Are they their bank accounts? How is it displayed in it? Are all their audit reports true? False? What have these newspapers reported so far? What are the facts told to people? Analyze all this and see for yourself.
To loot public property in the country, to corrupt thousands of crores, to loot thousands of crores, to smuggle thousands of crores of drugs, to take it to the people, to give wrong political administration against the people, to intimidate social activists and social well-wishers with the help of political party called political parties that voice against it. There are also newspapers.
As a result, criminals and criminal cases are on the rise in the country. The only place that can stop all this is the court. That is why the media department has done everything possible to bring in strict rules for social welfare newspapers in this regime. That is, even a government order has been issued to buy government identity cards for periodicals in RNI Chennai.
Some press associations and newspapers are begging the news department even for these government identity cards. Not only that, they are getting someone who is not involved in the case to file a case in the court.
This shame and misery can only be appealed to the court of journalism and social justice and wrong rules can be removed. Apart from this, the rules of newspapers should be changed according to the times and that change should be given to social interest magazines and only then other newspapers and television channels should be given to them on the basis of their capacity. On what basis should this change be made, it should be created in the public interest in the public interest?
Only then can journalism be the fourth pillar of democracy and there should be no political interference in it. As long as there is political interference, there will be no social interest. Just as politics has become the selfishness of political parties, journalism has also become selfishness of the media.
The consequence of this has become political selfishness in the country. Echo of selfishness In politics, anarchy, corruption, looting to cheat the law, becomes a continuous story. Tolerating it is a public anguish. The only solution to all this is that it is the duty of the law to protect the people of the country and the social welfare press by dispensing justice without political interference.
