You will see a host of military men and former ambassadors -‘talking heads that help understand the war,’ according to CNN News18.Īll of this and much more, each day and every night. You will see brave Indian TV reporters in Ukraine-the latest ones to get into the ‘war zone’ as channels refer to it, are ABP News and Times Now-walking streets, braving attacks ( India Today), travelling to different cities and trying to talk to Ukrainians (now, if only all of them spoke English). You will witness non-stop action on six to eight split screens ( Times Now) - missiles and bombs going off, buildings exploding, Russian convoys on highways ( Republic TV, TV9 Bharatvarsh), tanks entering not only different Ukrainian cities but also advancing through the TV studios ( Times Now, India TV, Zee News) and bombers flying dangerously above the TV anchors’ heads. See for yourselves: Remote control different channels and find yourself in the midst of the ‘World at War’ ( Republic TV) everywhere. Even as the Russian military carpet-bombing of much of Ukraine, major Hindi and English television news channels, have spent the past seven days rolling out carpet coverage of the Ukraine-Russia conflict - that too, 24×7. What we have watched in the last week, is extraordinary.
