Peacock terms in lead

Regarding the Template:Peacock, the lead currently includes, as just one example, this phrase: The company is considered to be a legacy brand that pioneered independent news broadcasting in India, and is credited for launching the first 24x7 news channel and the first lifestyle channel in the country. This is loaded and ambiguous wording which implies importance without supporting that. It also includes claims which are not properly supported in the body of the article, which is poor practice per WP:LEADFOLLOWSBODY. Who "considers" them this? How are they "pioneers"? Who "credited" them with this, and why is this credit so important that it belongs in the first paragraph? Please see WP:PEACOCK, WP:WEASEL, and WP:NOTSOAP. Thanks.

Nobody taking The wire seriously. ALt news founders hounded and jailed. Ravish Kumar left NDTV and turns YouTuber. NDTV becomes Godi media and relentlessly broadcasting Ram Mandir Pran Pratishtha. NDTV still reliable? BlackOrchidd (talk) 10:13, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

+ NDTV broadcasted Modi's Temple inaugration in Abu Dhabi without break on 14th Feb 2024. Meanwhile the protesting farmers suffered in perils at Shambhu border, NDTV didnt spared a moment of screen time during the temple inaugration. BlackOrchidd (talk) 07:40, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Neutrality in Describing Adani Group's Acquisition and The Economist Citation

Hi everyone, I noticed that the current phrasing describes the Adani Group as 'noted for its affinity with the ruling BJP government' and references The Economist’s statement about the news channel’s editorial shift after the acquisition. To maintain neutrality, would it be better to rephrase this to focus on the factual aspects of the acquisition, with The Economist’s perspective on the editorial change presented as a cited observation rather than implying a specific relationship between Adani and the government? Additionally, should we include the resignations following the takeover as a separate point to ensure clarity? I’d love to hear your thoughts. I.Mahesh (talk) 11:55, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
