Newslaundry

Newslaundry is an Indian media watchdog[1] which engages in providing media critique, reportage and satirical commentary.[2] It was founded in 2012 by Abhinandan Sekhri, Madhu Trehan and Prashant Sareen, all of whom earlier worked in print or television journalism.[3] It was India's first subscription-driven website when launched, and since then other platforms have followed a similar non-advertising model, like The Wire.[4] In 2016, executive editor Manisha Pande and Sandeep Pai reported on how the politicians misuse the public sector undertakings in India.[5] It won the Ramnath Goenka Excellence in Journalism Award for investigative reporting.[6] The platform also hosts podcasts dedicated to politics, culture and entertainment.[7][8]
