Business Week declares that India is THE place to be if you are a print or broadcast journallist.
How will it all shake out? Can we just expect an aping of the West; celebrity news delivered to us ad nauseum? Will journalistic integrity fall prey to advertising interests [there are murmurs about this right now with regard to The Times of India]? Will a newly minted journalism degree from the US or the UK garner you the kind of work you want to pursue in India? Who will you be competing against and will your standards match theirs and vice versa?
The media wars in India may appear like a gold rush, but I suggest treading carefully before fully immersing yourself in the mix.
