The Editors Guild of India on Friday said it was 'disturbed' by the recent turn of events with respect to reports published by news portal The Wire on Meta and urged newsrooms to 'resist the temptation of moving fast on sensitive stories'. https://www.rediff.com/news/report/editors-guild-advises-caution-as-the-wire-retracts-meta-stories/20221028.htm
The statement comes after The Wire retracted a series of its investigative reports claiming Meta, the parent company of social media giants -- WhatsApp, Facebook and Instagram -- had accorded special privileges to Bharatiya Janata Party IT Cell chief Amit Malviya that enabled him to get posts removed from its platforms.
