The Broken News: How corporate owned Media suffer to stay independent? | Series Review
The BBC produced Media based drama series, The Broken News has made noise post it’s release on Zee5.
My take on this series
⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5
The Broken News reveals many secrets of present day TV News. In the show, an old news channel named Awaaz Bharti, struggle to compete with a modern new News Channel Josh 24/7. Both channels are owned by corporates and business men. This series has very well shown how the editorial decisions are altered by the interests of the corporate owners of the channel. News channels are also used as a medium to bring anyone down or push anyone up. It is also shown, how editorial decisions are altered or in easier words, compromised due to financial situations of the company. The makers have brought in real life references like TRP Scam and Pegasus. It is very well shown, how the Home Minister files a fake case of TRP scam only because the news channel had Tapes of the Home Minister.
This is a must watch. This can be viewed with a Zee5 Premium subscription.
