Yes abhilash you are quite right. Very conveniently people say - why the heck are you reading if you dont like it. But it has becoming and increasingly disturbing fact that Media which is supposed to be acting responsibly is also acting in a selfish manner to gain cheap popularity. Rediff is one of such media's now. Not only talking about the topic that you have addressed ... also see the topic where rediff has very conveniently posted a link saying " Video : Aishwarya - Abhishek pairing not happening " What utter rubbish. Just to have readers to somehow read their stuff the media can go to any extent, least realising how damaging it can become at times for anything or any persons life. BUt they dont seem to be bothered in front of personal gains.
Similarly - topics like the one posted for protests in pak for Aishwarya - Wow did I find even one sentence in the whole coverage about people in Pakistan being against aishwarya or protesting against her. I think rediff and other media needs to bring in quality stuff.
I think like earlier we used to read rediff news because of its content - now more and moer people prefer to look for more qualitative channels and more relevant channels to browse for news.
So much so forth - there is such a huge massacre that took place in Virginia Tech which has so many Indian students also studying there, but apart from 1 link there is no more coverage since yesterday ... but talk about aishwarya and abhishek wedding and the whole page howsoever downtroddena dn trivial is completely splashed about their upcoming wedding. how ridiculous can media get - to ask people to discuss the abhiwarya wedding and take video shots of students and interview them for their opinion. Let them live in peace and I think they need to realise that they aer here for a meaningful peurpose and get relevent news across the globe and not discuss the differences b/w aishwarya and abhishek and what they are wearing and who is their mehendiwali and who is not invited .... rubbish.
In the whole page the university shhotout link is placed right in the bottom as if it werent of any relevance - even after one professor of indian origin being killed and one indian student missing and som many more children shot to death .... but human massacre seems to be of no relevance to the media in front of such sucking gossip.
