Reception

The season drew praise from critics across board, just like The Broken News, Season 1.

The Indian Express stated, "…it borrows bravely from current events, and tells us how all ‘news’ can be ‘spun’ so that a particular point-of-view is cemented."

Scroll.in remarked, "The newsroom drama is occasionally cracking. The corporate manipulations, boardroom priorities and the nexus with elected authorities are neatly woven in." News 18 awarded the show 4 out of 5 stars.

Saibal Chatterjee in his review for NDTV rated the show 2.5 out of 5 and stated, "Not that all of it hits home with equal force, but parts of The Broken News Season 2 do strike a chord and provoke thought."

Anuj Kumar in The Hindu calls it "An incisive X-ray of the news business Driven by convincing performances and compelling drama" saying that "director Vinay Waikul’s series exposes the moral ambiguities that dot the mediascape."

Sana Farzeen in India Today says "Watching ‘The Broken News 2’ feels like switching on a news channel and hearing the daily bulletin. There are words like 'urban naxal', 'propaganda', 'libtards', and 'social media manipulation' being thrown around during casual conversations." saying that "Spawn on different sides, they continue to fight the biggest battle between truth and ratings in the second season."
