Dear Rajdeep,Lot of questions are being asked by the readers as to why you did not air the CDs or disclose that a sting operation had been conducted,before the trust vote was taken up.If you were so concerned about the way horse trading was taking place and eventually it would sully the image of the Parliament and the country,was it not your duty to hand over the CDs to the office of the Speaker before the vote? Or were you scared that the CD may cause irrepairable damage to the Congress party?In your innumerable interviews and discussions with politicians and leaders of various parties,you have somehow come across as a person having more than a soft corner for the Congress party despite it being a party of slaves of the Gandhi family.Are you one of them? One would expect a man of your calibre to carry the torch of fair journalism high,both by word and deed.You needrd to be impartial.Not that I can dispute the feeling that the Govt in all it's current avatar of votes at any cost,money or lives,could have damaged your position by closing down your channel,in vendetta,though it seems improbable.That the Congress govt is trying to gag the press to enable the Congressmen and their Mata to do as they wish and loot the country is a known fact.There are lot of unanswered questions your side of the net.Could u pl give your side of the story for the benefit of the Rediff readers as well as try to clear your name which at the moment seems tainted like the money displayed in the Parliam

What is wrong if a media is supported by a party? Isn't Fox News is a Republican Media? Does that mean they don't show the correct news or people don't watch their shows? BTW, Bill Oreiley show is the most watched in USA.

Media or individual can never be unbiased. Unbiased will only have events - if you want clear analysis we should be biased. Weigh pros and cons and choose right path. I am inclined more towards leftist just like ur towards right. Its absolutely fine, but one should truly believe in that, consistent about it and reason rationally
