Dear Friend, this is exactly what's stopping our progress. We have a media which lacks self image. Our media is so self critical and immature. Look how western media treats its own leaders and informs its people. Check how an Australian media prepares when its Cricket Team tours India. The Aus tour of India during 2001 was perfect case in point. Saurav and his team had to not only fight it out against 11 Australians, but whole of Aus media, rather pathetically our own overtly self critical Indian media. And this put our Indian umpires under pressure. And we hardly did anything when Michael Slater was so mis-behaving in the first test. Indian media does not educate our masses, and instead rakes up trivial issues to inappropriate proportions to gain some cheap publicity. That's what people do when they lack a vision and self-image.
