https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIXamgRBl5I What is India Today? It's a Indian News Station. It has a very tabloid style....and it's loving insane. Shiv Aroor is one of the Senior correspondents and is CONSTANTLY amped up like he did an eightball. It makes Fox look restrained...but that's more in the graphics sense (granted I did see Seb Gorka on once, but I mean he was newsworthy at one point...sadly). It's just so loving bonkers, but also...goodish...in terms of covering stuff and legit having people on the ground. It's just so so garish/tabloid style and Shiv Aroor is so GOGOGO'ed the gently caress up (honestly it's kind of infectious)...that it's somehow awesome. It's also a nice way to get a look at Indian domestic issues and cultural matters since it's English language. It's also hilarious when they start poo poo talking Pakistan and China at times. Oh they also have an EGaming Channel listed in their related links where they CGI in the announcers...which is a technique not limited to gaming.* Because THE REAL WARZONE.   *One of these two correspondents are still in India. Also Shiv wished him a happy birthday too!  This is only scratching the surface.

This Channel is bananas. Don't subscribe to it though because they fill your subscriptions list to hell and back. Honestly though their on the ground reporting has been really good and given some interesting looks at things that the other channels aren't getting.

I haven't seen them throwing random tweets out there as "news".

Yep, they mention when something isn't confirmed and even discuss the issues related to it. On the insanity front, I love the crazy action production music they use. Also in Kyiv the microphone they use is painted GOLD. But yeah peeling back the wackiness the reporting seems to hold up.

quote:The Russian invasion of Ukraine has killed over 350 civilians so far. Latest satellite images have revealed a 40-mile long convoy heading to Kyiv. Ukraine has said their goal for the talks was an immediate ceasefire while Russia's Vladimir Putin has put the country’s nuclear deterrent forces in a "special regime of combat duty". Several nations, such as Germany, the US, Australia, and Canada, have decided to send military support to Ukraine. Meanwhile, India again abstained from voting at a UNHRC meeting held on Monday. Stay tuned for Russia-Ukraine War News LIVE Update. seems like a great channel

The poo poo they have where a bunch of old generals yell at the top of their lungs around the battle map is great The camera is shakey cam style as the dude walks it closer and further away and swings it around to give, I assume, what they feel is a “real war feel”. All of the other segments in the studio have the traditional mounted cameras The utterly ridiculous combination of the INTENSE WAR CAMERA + EXPLOSION GRAPHICS really pairs well when the human subjects are old rear end dudes wearing ascots If you thought American hyper 24/7 news was just TOO SLOW then India Today is for you - nothing stays on the screen for more than 5 seconds and their are like 4 different banners scrolling headlines. It’s like the news version of a 90s website that has a ton of popups.

If I understand this correctly, it's an indian news channel with the same production values as a Bollywood movie.

Honestly I want some dude interrupting an interview to start rapping with it. I’d love to see how they’d cover boring rear end poo poo, say like a kid getting an award for community service or something standard.

The chiron is saying an Indian has been killed in Ukraine. I can only presume this '1/3 of a Benghazi' event involves a correspondent from India Today.
