Let's not lie. TVC is for APC while Arise TV is for LP

May 24, 2023

In a political landscape characterized by bias and media influence, it has become increasingly important to analyze the role of television networks in shaping public opinion. Two prominent Nigerian television stations, TVC and Arise TV, have recently come under scrutiny for their perceived affiliation with political parties. It is no secret that media outlets can sway public sentiment, and allegations of bias raise questions about the objectivity and integrity of these news channels.

TVC, known as Television Continental, has long been associated with the All Progressives Congress (APC), the ruling political party in Nigeria. Critics argue that the station tends to favor the APC in its reporting, providing favorable coverage and downplaying any negative aspects associated with the party. This bias has led to accusations of partiality and manipulation of information in favor of the ruling party.

On the other hand, Arise TV has been accused of having leanings toward the Labour Party (LP), an opposition party in Nigeria. Some observers believe that Arise TV tends to focus on highlighting the shortcomings of the APC government while providing favorable coverage to the LP and its members. These allegations have further fueled the notion that media outlets are used as tools for political propaganda.

The role of the media in a democracy is crucial, as it is responsible for disseminating information and holding power to account. However, when media organizations align themselves with specific political parties, it raises concerns about the impartiality and objectivity of their reporting. In a healthy democracy, citizens rely on the media to provide unbiased and accurate information to make informed decisions.

It is important to note that media bias is not unique to Nigeria. It is a global phenomenon that exists in varying degrees across different countries. Nonetheless, it remains crucial for journalists and media organizations to maintain their independence and ethical standards.

To address these concerns, regulatory bodies, such as the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) in Nigeria, play a crucial role in ensuring fair and balanced reporting. These organizations should monitor television networks closely to prevent any undue political influence that may undermine the democratic process.

Furthermore, it is essential for viewers to be discerning consumers of news. Citizens must actively seek out diverse perspectives and multiple sources of information to form a well-rounded understanding of political events. Relying solely on one television network for news can lead to a skewed perception of reality.

In conclusion, allegations of TVC's affiliation with the APC and Arise TV's alleged leanings toward the LP highlight the importance of media independence and transparency. Journalists and media organizations should strive to maintain their objectivity and provide unbiased reporting. Likewise, viewers must be vigilant in assessing the credibility of their news sources and seek a diverse range of perspectives to form a well-informed opinion. It is only through these measures that the media can fulfill its crucial role in a thriving democracy.

TVC is working for APC, they literally own it, it's on record

Arise TV is working for Nigerians ,speaking on behalf of Nigerians, not PDP or LP

Channels TV was once like that until Buhari intimidated them and they started serving APC

Arise TV will soon be competing with top stations like BBC and co

Arise tv is now the voice of nigerians and not for any political party.

I am always objective, well i try to, even at that

Arise tv "isn't" working for any LP person


They have been called out several times for "attacking" Peter obi

That TVC will finally become NTA after May 29th. This will further make Nigerians hate watching them. It was created by Tinubu as a propaganda tool.

The Babajide Kolade Otitoju will be the official propagandist and damage controller of the Tinubu presidency.

The Journalists’ Hangout will be renamed “APC 60 minutes “

I never knew Arise or Asleep TV till town hall meetings for campaign started, I guess I mad that clear in my previous comment, I don't watch Arise TV.
I have never tuned my TV to watch Arise TV, I don't have to watch it to know the propaganda going on there just like I don't really use Twitter but know the propaganda u all carry out there.
I am sure it's too difficult for u to understand but I won't bIame u tho.
Understanding is beyond the mental frequency of Eluu P crooners.

Everyone knows TVC is owned by APC. Arise TV should at least own up to the fact that they're being sponsored by LP

You want Arise Tv to be like TVC and NTA , anywhere belle face stations. There's no time they can say anything against government even if they're killing the citizens. They will always side the government no matter the level of atrocities they perpetrate

LP became popular across the country just yesterday and Arise News had been in existence before that. Just understand that Arise News grill politicians, including Peter Obi, just for the interest of Nigerians.

Government officials like to play god and don't like answering tough questions. You cannot try that if you appear on Arise TV. That's what the media ought to do for the people.

Alaye, you be Obidient, you guys think you are the only Nigerians in Nigeria.

Every serious TV station grills government officials. If they want to be eulogized and ass-licked, they should go to rickety NTA.

I still prefer channels TV.
Arise TV is too obviously biased. Obidients will not agree because they agree with the coverage.
Hopefully we get something soon to compete with channels

Forget Arisetv, Channels tv remains the most balanced TV station in Nigeria.

TVC supports APC particularly Asiwaju because he owns the station, which is understandable. However Arise TV goes all out to spread falsehood particularly against APC. The establishment of TVC shows that Tinubu had the foresight to know that a toxic and dangerous media outfit like Arise will be all out to damage his reputation, therefore a TVC will come in handy to neutralize Arise propaganda. If not for the endsars basterds that burned down TVC, who is Arise Tv to match up to TVC.

He is a nuisance

There is no station that is not biased. However TVC and AIT are out of the equation since they are owned by career politicians. That erodes any credibility one ever expected. Only channels and arise are owned by career journalists. However, Arise has by far been more fearless in holding politicians accountable.
Even some awards channels used to win Arise has taken them from channels. No station grows by having a pro government sentiment in a democracy. If channels don't up their games, even agents of the ruling party will stop watching it.
