5 yr old saved..?? good business by TV channels.!
by Bhavin on Jul 24, 2006 08:53 AM

Great effort from Indian army. kudos to them. Looking at the loose soil and the complexity of the issue it was a great great successful effort.! Cheers.!

But the issue was too much politicized by the news channels and other media(s). Dont we know how many children of the same or even lesser age in India die/killed of various reasons like hunger, blind beliefs or simply come under local trains while playing?? Why was this issue politicized so much? Okei, accepted, this was a marathon task - but news channels were giving live coverage of this for hours together! Have the media people thought of giving a live coverage of entire families who have not have had a piece of bread since days, months together?? Cover them live on TV, those beggars we see on the signals. Or those people who are innocent but fall prey to maoists or cross-border terroism/war..!! Why dont u cover them? Coz it doesnt sell like hot cake as it was done yesterday?

If it reflected that "we are one" feeling amongst indians, it did give business to those TV channels. Didnt it? Its always making money from others personal life for news people.Invest that money for the better of inhibited villages - they will bless
