@swapan55 @Swamy39 @smritiirani @rahulkanwal @sardesairajdeep @sagarikaghose @timesnow @BDUTT Has the Press become an outdated institution? How many Internet-savvy people have read the article by Shekhar Gupta on the 'real' history of the 1965 India-Pakistan war under the column "National interest" in The Indian Express?
I was surprised to know that for a veteran journalist like Gupta, the fact that the Indian account of '65 is a gross exaggeration was news. Readers of Wikipedia have known it for ages!
The question is, now that the mainstream media is being increasingly found outdated, how long will it take to become irrelevant?
