      With its order today, government makes it clear that it only wants to penalise those who are accredited, i.e "Mainstream media". The I&B ministry’s "Fake News" threat doesn't extend to those websites that openly flout journalistic ethics, some q often quoted by Ministers.pic.twitter.com/SZ8v2AcLEH

      Committee comprising of senior officers , reps of PCI, NBA, IBF set up for regulations/ policy for digital broadcasting & News portals. Till such time the regulation is not implemented rules cannot be enforced for news portals by industry.

          But those who are penalised by today's order, by definition, can only be those who are accredited. And they can be penalised on the basis of a "complaint", not a final decision. I can't imagine that's fair, Ma'am.

          Accreditation committee comprises of editors, journalists and reps of PCI & NBA; do you think they will victimise one of their own? Also a celebrated senior journalist such as your kind self should support ethical journalism & not ‘fake news’.

          This will be used by govt to go after journalists they don't like. This is exactly like Rajiv Gandhi's defamation bill.

          Why are you scared? There is a institution called judiciary. Knock their door in distress. Fake news is a serious pblm. It needs strong action to tackle it.

          In a breaking news cycle, it's an easy way to shut down a persistent journalist. Tell them to go to the judiciary. By the time the verdict is out, story's finished and moved on.

          Accredited journalists don’t push fake news as a feature of their work. They make mistakes yes but they self-correct because it’s about professionals operating under Press Council regulation. Random websites with no accreditation are the ones who deliberately push fake news.

          If Govt wants to crackdown the escalation of fake News first they must ban BJP IT Cell.

          They should be made accountable too if they peddle fake news. Everyone should be accountable to their actions.
