To be honest, they aren't influencing, they're threatening media houses. No Indian news outlet except NDTV shows the truth because NDTV is suffering from losses in revenue as Central leaders have boycotted NDTV for showing the truth.

Look at how the anti CAA protests are shown in general media. They're blaming opposition for everything

First time I learnt, news channel become more neutral when they are in loss. Conventional Response is to produce more polarising narrative to gain more views especially a target group that becomes loyal followers.

They're not "neutral"because they're in loss.

I remember since my childhood that NDTV has always been critical of the government and that's why I liked it but due to Burkha Dutt, I started to dislike the channel.

Now NDTV is the only channel which reports facts. You see Republic, Zee news etc blatantly spread govt agenda. But that's not because they're in loss, that's because they have sold their soul or never had one to begin with.

Also the media channels which kiss the emperors ring get contracts and are gaining profit. They fear monger and STILL blame the opposition even though BJP has ruled the county for six years. Of course you're surprised, you created a new just to spread propaganda here! But worry not, we won't let it happen and we have downvoting privileges, this isn't Twitter or Face book where the one who shouts the loudest is true

The personal attack is uncalled for. This is not /r/india. The rest of your post was insightful.

I find the use of downvote ironic here. (downvotes are not used for opposing a view point or disagreement)

It's ok for downvoting to express disagreement on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16131314.
