Des Ki Baat | "Role Of Anchor Is...": Supreme Court On Hate Speech On TV

Des Ki Baat - September 21, 2022: The Supreme Court today held the "role of anchor" as "very important" while coming down on TV channels over hate speech. It also asked why the government is "remaining a mute spectator". "These speeches on mainstream media or social media are unregulated. It's (the anchors') duty to see that hate speech doesn't continue the moment someone does. Freedom of the press is important... Ours is not as free as the US but we should know where to draw a line," Justice KM Joseph observed at the hearing of a batch of petitions. (Audio in Hindi)
