'It was the most depressing time of my career': Rajesh Sundaram's damning testimony in five quotes

"It was the most depressing time of my career. I had never seen such a train wreck... terrible moments of my life. This was caused by pure greed from the Guptas."

Sundaram was referring to his departure and why he decided to leave after launching the channel, just months after his arrival in SA.“There was no position for an editor in this station. They just wanted a rubber stamp. It was more of a propaganda station that they wanted to set up.""Most of the times, editorial meetings were hijacked by Nazeem Howa and Moegsien Williams. They would direct that there be no coverage for a Democratic Alliance press conference...

According to Sundaram, then-president Jacob Zuma was being played by the Guptas, who made him feel as if they would implement his suggestions.
