The print media culture was started in the 1780s, introducing us to Hicky's Bengal Gazette by James Augustus Hicky.
Troubled by unjust policies of the East India company, Mr. James Augustus published the first newspaper ever, The Hicky's Bengal Gazette.
In June1923, broadcasting services were started as a private venture and by 1927, Radio broadcasting was the major medium of information.

On 15th September 1959, Doordarshan came into existence owned by the Ministry of information and broadcasting which made television a medium of information. After some decades some privately owned media houses founded a never ending competition, some were chasing the real truth exposing discriminatory policies of the government and some were the Television rating point.
Today it's all about TRP, very few media houses doing their work honestly, few means you can count on your fingers.

According to the recent survey of Reporters Without Borders (RSF), India ranks 142nd out of 180 countries in the Press freedom index and it's very obvious, we can clearly see the influence of the government on our media.
