Role of the Fourth Estate as we see today!
Previously, Fourth Estate meant the Print media and the Freedom of the Press were very often discussed. When All India Radio and Doordarshan came to the doorsteps of every house, their role confined to the presentation of the News at three intervals in a day and entertainment was their main agenda. But they too were vulnerable for criticism regarding hiding of facts and pro-government information presentation to the masses.Cable TV/Dish TV networks with various News channels, Print media with political affiliations and the social media have changed the complexion of the game and all these elements form part of the Fourth Estate. We don't understand who is biased and who isn't, can't help even the intentions are clear.
