Exactly. Now these media idiots have a reason to hide the BJP victory news. Benazir was nothing to India. It is sad she got killed, but so did the 50 security gaurds who protected her before. Tha was brushed aside so lightly.

I guess the timing of the HP results went wrong. Unfortunately, Ms. Benazir was assasinated yesterday and most of the channels wre busy trying to catch some eyeballs of the viewers. May be Mr. Pranoy Roy also must be watching CNN & BBC to jot down some questions to Ms. Barkha to ask all her Pak counterparts about the future of Pak post Benazir assasination. Rest of the names you mentioned vanished from the scene, may be planning their new year party or are already in the new year bash mood.
