I always felt the need of a complete transparent channel which is not backed by any political party nor is just to do business. I feel if people take up the initiative we can definitely have such channel soon. A channel which can be a medium between the people and their govt. A channel which will not have any kind of publicity gimmick to gain business. A channel that shall tell stories as it is without modifying content . A channel which shouldnt draw conclusions without getting a close probe into matter. A channel which will unravel the conspiracies taking place at high levels too. A channel which shall not be influenced by any body
I strongly feel the need of such channel and this can only be started by the common man because as in today's world there is no organisation which would have service in their top priorities. I am not discouragin the idea of business but i feel that the top priority here should be given to transparency rather than business

I don't think there will ever be a TV show that will be 100% transparent b/c the news is filtered by the company who owns it. If you want transparent news, you best bet is the internet. Even though you have to make sure what you are believe is 100% accurate, at least it isn't filtered.

That would be nice, but keep in mind everyone has biases. Have you ever seen a newscast where they just reported the weather or the local sports scores without having an opinion about them? Try www.wikinews.org, though obviously even people there will write stories with their own biases, even if unconsciously.
