Shame on the media
by Sudripta Nandy on Sep 10, 2007 11:01 AM

Congrats to the whole Indian hockey team. We all Indians are very proud of you. But, I would ask the media to change its attitude. The media should know that it has some responsibility towards the country. They only look for TRP ratings. When even a single cricket match is won, every news channel only covers this topic as hot discussion with reviews for the day... etc. What happened now. How many news channels covered this exciting moment of India? The Indian hockey team trounced every country which came in its path. We should be encouraging them. When the Indian cricket team is bringing us more sorrows than happiness, we should applaud the efforts of this hockey team. Just because a cricket discussion brings more TRP ratings, the media is interested to cover a cricket loss rather than such an awesome hockey victory. Change your attitude... media.... change your attitude.
