Its like asking a person if he requires food to stay healthy.
News for an mba student is food for thought. And not just mba student, every corporate needs to know global news to keep abreast with the industry.

according to me mba students need to apply their managerial skills.....more practically... dat is da reason why they have so many case-studies..wathching news related to business will not only keep them updated but also helps in tackling case-studies...the more they expose to business related topics the better and deep is the knowledge they get. so i believe every mba student must watch news channel

yes ! i think that mba students must watch a news, they must know the current issues going in the business world. Instead of watching those stupid movies they must spend their spare time in watching the news channels like CNBC World, CNBC awaaz, IBN 7 etc... It'll really help them practically....

Ofcourse its necessary to view the news channel, forget MBAs, even other professionals have to keep abreast with the day to day ongoings within the nation and globally too. Any news whether at that time relevant or no will make its presence 1 day and that will be the most happiest day of our life.
So viewing news channel or for tht matter ne information makes a person breathe smoothly rather than having breathing problems.

Compulsion is the wrong word to use.

Should be "Necessary".

If not from the angle of increasing one's knowledge base at least
from the interview point of view, one should watch the Channels.

its not a compulsion in my point of view. but ya it surely adds to ur knowledge, especially the talks, the gd's that happen, the interviews of business people, actual pictures of the event.
i think it makes the topic more interesting and more presentable to know when u see in news channel than in newspapers.
