At the insistence of senior editors at the Malayalam daily Madhyamam, and its weekly magazine, veteran journalist BRP Bhaskar began penning his memoirs. The serialised memoirs were so popular that publisher DC Books compiled them into a book, Newsroom, that proved to be a bestseller.
The success of the autobiography in Malayalam led to calls for an English translation.
Bhaskar, now 91, however, preferred to pen a new work, as he felt Newsroom was “by and large, a book in the Kerala context. It addresses the last seven decades of Indian journalism through a Malayali viewpoint”.
The result is The Changing Mediascape (published by the Kerala Media Academy; ₹350), which Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin is slated to release at an event in Chennai on 8 September.
South First brings you excerpts of the book, with permission of the author and publisher.
