Joseph Pultizer, the legendary American media baron, said famously once: ““Our Republic and its press will rise or fall together. An able, disinterested, public-spirited press, with trained intelligence to know the right and courage to do it, can preserve that public virtue without which popular government is a sham and a mockery. A cynical, mercenary, demagogic press will produce in time a people as base as itself.” What Pulitzer wrote back then, is perhaps even truer today in these turbulent times of India, when media ownership has passed into the hands of political parties and large business houses with their own agendas.
At Nyusu, which is India's first one-minute, multi-lingual, video news with views app, we take Pulitzer’s words rather seriously. Therefore, our vision is fairly simple: We want to bridge the gap that exists in vernacular media. We want to do so by offering you the best news app possible by focusing on a) factual video news stories that will democratise information by making them accessible to the illiterate or semi-literate in India, b) in a language that he/she is most comfortable speaking, thinking and debating in, c) issues that are most relevant to their lives and not just to the lives of urban and elite Indians, d) editorial opinion that is unbiased and fearless, e) enterprise stories that highlight important issues facing Indian people, f) citizen journalism that allows the common man to take an active part in media, and, most importantly, by focusing on a format that is easy to consume (videos less than a minute long for new; but longer—up to 5 mins—for Specials and Opinions) and a device that is now ubiquitous: the smartphone.
Does that makes us the best news app for Android and iPhone? We certainly hope so. Nyusu is free to download from Google Play store and Apple app store. So, download the news app and start enjoying, crisp, one-minute video news in English, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu. Nyusu will give you the option of selecting one or multiple languages depending on your choice. Once you have downloaded the Android or iOS news app of Nyusu, you can watch video news in different categories: politics, crime, entertainment, sports, world, and even offbeat. Your daily hunt for news will never be boring again. Why read when you can watch and listen? That is the promise of India’s newest and best news app for Android and iPhone users.
