Rajiv Kumar, Exec. Producer, DD
Media regulation is much hated and coveted term but, working for regulated media is actually tightrope walk, says Rajiv Kumar a veteran in TV news programming. He's part of all the minor and major developments across the globe through DD cameras, newsrooms for more than two decades. He says that the U.S. and U.K. have regulations than how can we negate the relevance and importance of the regulations.

The media is getting faster and technologically better by every passing second. This has exposed our kids, teenagers to violence, pornography, crime, etc. Thus we need regulations to ensure the healthy mental state of our populace. During the 9/11 crisis the U.S. media was united on the issue of not showing any bloodshed to people in general. It simply shows how regulations work there. In India, every time we talk about regulation, voices come as if regulations are to gag media. But media has its moral and ethical responsibility so it requires regulations.
