Media...

Media the most powerful medium..can raise a man from earth to sky and vice versa.
Couple of days back,i was happy to read news abt saurabh singh, the boy who excelled in NASA exams.The news got more popularity when it was mentioned that our Mr.president and kalpna chawla also gave the same exam but this boy performed better then both....
The real story was yet to come..the shocking news in todays paper.."The news abt saruab was a hoax".It was confirmed by NASA ppl that they dont conduct such exams and Mr. president and kalpna chawla didnt appeared for these exams.Though saruabh gave a proof as exam identity card which relates to some competition under name of NASA(though full form will be different).
Really this media ppl are crazy to get hot news and they dont care for facts as they only think for their daily column news.
And the biggest surprise was that, Mr. president already met the boy and parents in this concern and our PM cancelled the meeting at last minute.Really no one cares for facts.Media should take into consideration that there news effect mass group.

Few months back there was some news about our cricketer bajji getting engaged with bangalore gal..priya reddy(this was mentioned in inerview with priya).
Next day bajji counter attacked saying that they are just frnds and there is nothing as such going on and media has taken her statements in wrong way..he will marry with his parents wishes that too in punjabi community.
News of kidnapping case of bihar boy jolted every one..then from next day onwards i used to see,daily one kidnapping case news.Either the kidnapping cases were already in large masses but media never cared to expose them or the kidnappers thought its right time for them to carry on there job:-)
Some times ppl use the media just for their publicity....dont know whom to really blame.
Its gud that media also belts the wrong guys but now days papers are full of cooked stuff rather then real story.

hey...awsome blog..loved the one on LM &AM.
about the media...I think journalism is in a sad state right now...remember the time (90's I think) when a couple of journalists got murdered for printing the right stuff...Hopefully..someday we'll get it right..and the right stuff gets printed..
