Abstract
Indian media has undergone a massive change in the last few years. With the proliferation of new technology, we have entered the era of media convergence that includes a range of options: from TV to podcasts. Politicians with tons of money have bankrolled publications, raising concerns over the trustworthiness of the fabled ‘fourth estate’. The paper seeks to demystify the murky world of the Indian media: the role it plays in ‘manufacturing consent’. The unholy nexus among the corporates, political actors & media is also given due weightage in the paper.
