BMI Group

Our guiding principles

All the publications of BMI Group – BestMediaInfo, BuzzInContent, NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi – follow the basic code of ethics laid out over the years for journalism.

While BestMediaInfo and BuzzInContent are B2B news platforms and follow standard operating practices of journalism, the general news platforms NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi have set guidelines to follow in their reportage.

NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi pledge to stand for open and independent journalism, wholly unbiased, be it religious or political, pecuniary or otherwise. Testimony to the fact is that we have already prohibited the very usage of words like Hindu, Muslim, Dalit, etc.

Mudslinging and targeted slandering will not make it to NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi. The only agenda is to inform and educate, the parliamentary way.

NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi will be voicing the views of the people with authority over the subject, the direct subjects, victims or beneficiaries or those genuinely close to the developments. No random statements and random sources will be acknowledged.

NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi will also strive best to give equal weightage to “for” and “against” views on any issue to avoid a slant.

“Objectivity” will be the keyword we will religiously follow and remain “to the point”. NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi will also go all-out to call out any misinformation half-facts it will come across.

Imposing, bold, sharp and incisive are not just the words but will be pillars of the framework NewsDrum and NewsDrum Hindi will operate in.
