Why Did This Journalist Question Modi? | Journalism Under Pressure I Vijender Chauhan

What happens when a journalist asks a powerful leader a difficult question, even when she knows the chances of getting an answer are small? In this conversation, Norwegian journalist Hela reflects on her experience questioning Prime Minister Narendra Modi and why simply asking the question still matters.

The conversation goes beyond one incident to examine what journalism is supposed to do. Hela argues that journalists should not become so afraid of appearing like activists that they stop asking critical questions. She also discusses the difference between journalism and activism, the responsibility of journalists to challenge misleading claims, and the importance of holding power accountable.

The discussion also explores newsroom diversity, labour reporting, the pressures faced by journalists in India, and what journalism students should learn today. Hela shares her experiences working in the US and Norway, and why journalists must decide what kind of journalist they ultimately want to become.
