Sampath Kumar, just because they cannot publish anything now doesn't mean that they should publish anything and everything without verifying the facts.
Remember the Haneef incident? Australian police just picked him up for questioning as a 'suspect' because his SIM was found at the sight of the blast in London. [That is a valid reason to pick someone up for questiontions]
Now, what did our Indian media do about that? They started tracking his High-school, College, Friends, his rented accommodation, his family members, his in-laws, his photo was so repeatedly beamed in ALL channels, irrespective of the languages and screaming from dawn to dusk that an "Indian Terrorist Doctor" has been arrested in Aus. Now, I simply cannot erase his image from my mind.
Ultimately, it turned out to be false and there was no charges against him and the Australian govt had an embarassing situation.
What I mean to suggest here was: Instead of verifying the facts, had these Indian channels / media houses demonstrated certain professionalism, his face wouldn't have been portrayed as an "Indian TerrorisT".
Tell me, if he comes to your house for seeking a rental accommodation, would you give him?
