Perfect respond to agenda-journalism!
Saw this story on Morning Context: https://themorningcontext.com/internet/pocket-fm-faces-multiple-legal-complaints-in-the-us
I assume the journalist spent months in getting all these documents, done the research work and then, allowed weekend and a Monday to other party to respond? Does that mean, the journalist wrote a 2000-word article in three days?
My point is not whether Pocket FM is wrong or right. We cannot judge. But, the question is whether this style of journalism is the new normal? The way Morning Context kept cornering companies in their stories with a strong-agenda, this time in a sub-judice matter!
I commend Pocket FM for not bowing down, asking for enough time that is there in their statement. Equally commendable for Morning Context to be brave enough to put that in the story (with a weak defence) .
What do you all have to say for this style of journalism? Wake-up or just plain woke?

No matter what agenda they peddle, company saying that we will speak on a particular day and not speaking is not exactly a perfect response
Not sure if that is the case unless you are aware of the case. Because the story says that TMC gave the company an entire weekend + Monday to respond. The statement mentioned the spokespeople to be available at their earliest availability. Not sure if the company has failed on any commitment on their availability. I could not find that in the story
Stopped reading TMC and The Ken 2-3 years ago as both are negative clickbait journalisms.
TMC is actually agenda journalism at its worst masquerading as finest.
Even enron and union carbide claimed to uphold highest standards of integrity and ethics.
Corporates are the last people on this planet to talk about ethics and crib about agenda journalism. Them complaining is like politician or a babu talking about the evil of corruption.
This post was not done to defend any company. And, I am not here to make any judgement on a sub-judice matter. The post was to ask TMC on the level fairness they adopt while doing stories.
