Great time for news channels
by avidnewsreader on Jul 11, 2006 11:28 PM

Tragedies are a great time for Indian news channels. Dead bodies increase their TRP ratings.

The international new channels like CNN, Reuters and BBC are too happy to show dead body footage except in their home countries(because americans are as senstive as plants!). They are also tend to be very PC and the BBC in particular reports like a terror apologist.Shame on them.

AND, shame on us too,you could hardly find a paramedic at the scene of attack. What ever happened to the state machinery?
