Its about Money, Honey...
by rajesh on Nov 07, 2007 04:43 PM

Journalism is reaching a new low in India. With numerous news channels vying for viewship,news has to be packaged and 'sold' like a commodity. Tehelka expose is only a matter of making money rather than shedding tears for the riot affected people. The timing of the so-called expose is itself an expose of their dubious intentions. Their earlier 'expose' of Army deals looked so 'cooked-up' that I wonder whether they are journalists or sensationalists. I feel that 'journalism' is the casualty in this commercialisation of news channels where news is sold to viewers. It is time for the serious and real journalism to stand-up and distinguish themselves because its the media and Judiciary thyat are the hopes of the hapless people of this country, where the political class and the beuracracy have lost peoples' trust.
