Union minister for information and broadcasting Manish Tewari called Saturday for self-regulation in media to keep out judicial intervention.
Content regulation in media space is not going to come out of political executive but out of judicial process. Make self-regulation more inclusive and robust to keep out judicial intervention, he said here.
With exponential growth in media space,a paradigm shift has taken place,wherein regulations have to keep pace with changing technologies and have to be universal. Tewari said in effect there were over eight crore broadcasters in form of micro-bloggers and Twitter and FB users.
He observed the revenue models of Indian media organisations were not well-constructed,which led to issues of paid news,private treaties,tyranny of TRP,and sensationalism.
