stupid media
by arun verma on Jun 11, 2007 10:12 AM

Our media has this habit of finding the "indianness" of successful persons after they become successful. These idiots keep saying "american-indian" sunita williams. Why the hell are we so proud of her. She is by no means an Indian citizen, even if she is of Indian origin whats the big deal. She is what she is because of USA and not India. We should be proud when we put a pucca 100% indian astronauts (who are indian citizens) in space on a regular basis. Until then we should keep our mouth shut, otherwise our behaviour comes across as creepy.
