In a welcome landmark move from the media, national television news channel Aaj Tak followed by Telugu television channel aired public apology to Paramahamsa Nithyananda for having aired defamatory items featuring the morphed video.
In a significant ruling that is likely to set a precedent in cases involving privacy of an individual, the self regulatory body of entertainment channels, Broadcast Content Complaints Council (BCCC), has asked popular television channel ‘Star Vijay’ to apologise to actress Ranjitha Menon for showing a “morphed” video featuring her in a compromising position with Swami Nithyananda.
