We journos like most of the politicians do not do homework before writing. Journos are always in a hurry like politicians . Journos are after TRP and for sensationalising events as politicians are hungry for remaining in news and photopps. Very often ,they speak without any knowledge about the subjects on camera. I know some parliamentarians who do homework before speaking but they are shunned by media.
I had heard george fernandes, madhu dandavate, advani ,atalji and some congress MPs who would speak with facts and figures.
You are right that some journalists have disappointed us

Dear friends,
I read and watch with unease the state of media in our country today.
Most of those from the fraternity opine, don't report, with scant research to back them up. They are driven by a herd mentality.
Senior journalists write/speak on issues at random and keep silent on many other critical stories which they should be writing/speaking on. Some are heavily dictated by their publication/channel leanings or their private interests.
The media creates hype at will, distorts stories and gives a handle to those with vested interests. The partisan news and views influence politicians, judiciary and legislating bodies.
I understand that the News Broadcasting Standards Authority (NBSA) is a private body and not a legal entity. The Press Club of India (PCI) is a legal body and but yet to widen scope. The new Press Registration and Books (PRB) Act, also, is yet to be passed. It still runs on the 1867 Act.
Such a situation poses immense threat to the nation and to the populace.
It is necessary to raise our voices against this situation and bring the authenticity of news to an even keel. Something needs to be done.
