Thread: Who runs & funds Hinduphobic, Bharat-bashing media like ‘The Wire’?
Founded in 2015 by editors:

💡Siddharth Varadarajan-An American citizen of Indian descent, was earlier editor of The Hindu newspaper, a publication known for its Marxist/Maoist ideology anti-Hindu slant https://twitter.com/svaradarajan/status/1339457953041018882
He is a known Modi-baiter in the Lutyens Delhi media ecosystem. His brother Tunku Varadarajan, a US-based writer and journalist,has also been called out for his vitriolic Hindu-bashing.His wife Nandini Sundar is a DU prof who has been accused of deep links with Maoist terrorists.
💡Sidharth Bhatia - Journalist & writer based in Mumbai. He frequently disses the ‘Sanghi mind’ on twitter & cheers when history textbooks in California denigrate Hindu Dharma, or when our ex-colonial masters in UK plan to introduce a dangerous law against ‘caste discrimination’
that would pit Dharmic communities against one another.

💡MK Venu - He's another ex-The Hindu journalist who shot to national fame in the infamous Radia Tapes episode that exposed the corrupt journalist-corporate-politician-bureaucrat nexus that was UPA’s gift to the country.
Venu is also believed to have a role in the dubious infusion of funds to NDTV that is related to the ongoing bank fraud investigation against NDTV promoters.
💡Funding: It is reported that the 3 founders initially put in about Rs. 2 lakh each in the venture. Subsequently FIJ (the non-profit company that publishes The Wire) applied for a grant from the Independent and Public Spirited Media Foundation (IPSMF), a public charitable trust.
💡IPSMF claims to have received donations from over a dozen individuals and charitable organizations. Apart from Aamir Khan, IPSMF is chiefly funded by a mix of big business & industrialists from sectors as diverse as technology, pharma, finance, manufacturing, education.
💡Do these people know about the type of anti-business, pro-communist, Hinduphobic and lopsided journalism that The Wire propagates? Does big business in Bharat have no responsibility to ensure fair representation of Hindus in media?
Or is it that the intellectual facade of IPSMF trustees such as Guha who has strong Hinduphobic views and socialist leanings, overpowers the better sense of our industrialists who are mindlessly funding a media outlet like
The Wire which is actually pushing for a roll back to the disastrous Nehru/Indira/Sonia era of a statist, socialist, entitlement economy?
