Hear from POV's While We Watched director Vinay Shukla
A timely depiction of a newsroom in crisis, While We Watched follows tormented journalist Ravish Kumar for two years as he battles a barrage of fake news, falling ratings and the resulting cutbacks. Are there viewers for fact-based analyses anymore? Will his show survive or become a swan song of reason – drowning out in sensationalism, misinformation, and ratings-driven editorial decisions?
Major support for Behind the Lens has been provided by the Open Society Foundations—working for more than three decades to advance justice, inclusion, and human rights.
