No one is bothe...Your thoughts reflect my thinking. No one is bothered about the killing of a common man in India. This time was the first time when the educated and so called 'elite' were targeted. And all of a sudden, terrorism is bad appears in the press. Politicians have found to be wanting, corruption is rampart, police is not trained and so on. Wake up India is the rhetoric, which sounds hollow to me. The same press never bothers to report on when more than 1000 Indians are killed on the roads everyday. There is no mention about how corrupt the Medical Council of India is! Dengue strikes every year killing thousand of people and the press is silent about the apathy of the district magistrates.<BR/>In my opinion, our press is very immature and callous. Trendy young journalists ride up the ladder of success by reporting trash and no one cares. Even the channels like NDTV raise their voice when the educated and the rich are affected. VIPs are called to participate in mock sessions of discussion about what is current and relevant and bad... And then there is a next day and another story.<BR/>To be honest, I thought that this time would be different. The way these journalists reported the Mumbai carnage and raised their voices about enough is enough gave me some hope; hope about a media uprising; hope about a voice against all what is bad and ailing our country. A week later, my hopes are dashed to ground.DR Rajeev Kapoorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09736252092033643556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9019334699420282540.post-3234998126549307672008-12-05T18:59:00.000-08:002008-12-05T18:59:00.000-08:00what is Rewa?what is Rewa?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
