Another example

Just why do I believe that media is not helping the deteriorating situation.
A retd. colonel has this to say, "The media, under the garb of 'transparency,' has been sensationalising such events, and has taken a self appointed adversarial role vis a vis the armed forces. It should take a leaf from the book of the Western media that is very, very careful when it comes to coverage of the military".(ref: this link)

Again, it may be noticed, that the mediamen are only bothered about the "news items" which can further their careers and do not apply mind, logic, heart to their obligations and responsibilities vis-a-vis their country.

ps:
Finally, Laloo has managed what he set out to do - cover up the asses of those who burnt the train at Godhra. With assembly elections approaching in Bihar and given Laloo's history of caste/religion politics, it comes as no surprise. The game of law-in-the-hands-of-politicians continues.

pps:
The game continues in TN too where Ms. Jayalalitha has the audacity to unabashedly say that she is not interfering in the Kanchi Shankaracharya's case. The day the senior Seer was released, the junior Seer was arrested who was till then not even a co-accused or a suspect! The charges - just the same as were slapped against the senior Seer - without adding a single string of evidence to the trash that was rubbished just two days prior by the Supreme Court.
