Hi, I wouldn't really suggest a distance learning course in Print & TV journalism - because it wouldn't give you the desired practical knowledge, which is a must. Journalists aren't paid really well - so if you're expecting engineer/doctor-like salaries, this isn't for you. But that being said, you'll be able to have a decent living with the remuneration they're given.

No, Mass Communication is not necessary. You can do any Diploma or a part time course for this, otherwise Training and internship in any advertising company will also work.
All the best.

These are the top colleges in Pune:
1. Symbiosis Institute of Media and Communication
2. MAEER's Arts, Commerce and Science College
3. WLC College India
For Ahmedabad, these are some great colleges:
1. Mudra Institute of Communications
2. National Institute of Mass Communication and Journalism. Thanks.

Hi, That's quite a question. But it differs from person to person to adjudge any newspaper or channel on this basis. Rather than saying 'unbiased', I would say some newspapers/magazines/portals which are doing 'Stories of Courage' (which, may be, others wouldn't do) are The Wire, The Print, Caravan and The Times of India.
