Eminent journalist Rangaraj Pandey after quitting his chief editor's post on Thanthi Tv has taken to online media running his own YouTube channel in which he expresses his political and social views. He has stated that to curb the spread of fake news on social media charges should be levied on users.
According to Rangaraj Pandey To regularise social media, I suggest 3 things. 1. All activities in SM should be charged (Status ₹20, Share ₹10, Like ₹5...) 2. All messages should carry the creator's number even when its forwarded 3. Indigenous SMs should be encouraged to compete with WhatsApp, Twitter, FB.
It will be very interesting to see how netizens and hardcore social media users react to that and dont be surprised to find meme creators having a field day with Pandey's latest post.
