It is a pity that the media have blown the coverage of this incident to make it the prime news in all the channels. To make matters worse, wrong news is also being reported as 'breaking news'. I feel the electronic media should show some restraint in reporting such incidents esp as it affects the lives of people concerned - unfairly. The UP police having got electronic media attention probably for the first time, made unsubstantiated charges which subsequently have proven wrong including damaging the character of the por girl who was murdered.
I feel the electronic media should adopt some self imposed censorship and be careful in their reports. They should only report if there is any specific news to report and not base on speculative conjecture! Let the freedom of the Press not be misused for getting TV viewership.
