Many channels have thrown quality in their dustbins. No news channel in Kannada actually wants to deliver quality. Every channel has a political link one or the other way. 'Suddi TV' is a news channel that broadcasts in 16:9 format with good graphics and overlays but their content is absolute sh*t. They claim they are Kannada's first HD News channel but they are not. They only show their content in 16:9 but no DTH operators have set this channel's aspect to 16:9. On pillar-box mode, it appears compressed. I expected News 18 Kannada (formerly ETV News Kannada) to be good on visual elements but they disappointed. TV9, Suvarna News, Dighvijay News are okay; Public TV is a sh*tload. BTV is the sh*ttiest news channel ever made by humankind. Raj News Kannada and TV5 Kannada still have no luck in Karnataka, nobody watches them. Udaya News died a silent death. Nobody cares what Kasturi Newz does. There probably are a dozen more channels which nobody can remember. This whole news channel market in Karnataka is a complete mess.
