The crap News channels
This post isnt meant for specifically bashing the news channels,its instead to highlight the dropping standards of the Indian media. Newspapers are still a bit pure when compared to news channels, but the latter’s situation has gone so worse that only one word comes to my mind – OMG!
The most crap news channels which serve nothing except shit are India TV (the leader) followed Aaj Tak and then STAR News. NDTV used to be my favorite at one time but now I feel like switching the channel when it also dropped like to those petty “Mirch Masala” tactics only to lose faith in thousasand or lakh of viewers.
Just for a case take Arushi Murdur Case, these news channels have highlighted the story to such a large extent that I feel sick opening the TV and even the reporters go so much into private affairs which is truely unethical. That day is not far off that even when a dog dies, these news reporters will rush to take the live coverage ( oh, sorry maybe Ariel live coverage 
)
Most of these news channels re 24 hours, which make one fact clear – Having some new or the other news is not possible, so even if something trivial happens, they leave no chance to make it a sensational breaking news. Even sometimes they have to look into the news archives for older news to keep their live feeds running.
So the question is how shall we tell them to report properly? What should they telecast so that people show their loyalty and belief? Some which I can suggest are ” Show some good news, nice achievement which can inspire the newer generation“. Just showing the news of people dying, floods, suicide, murdurs and rapes, they cant increase their TRP above a threshold and even if it increases, its at the cost of loyal followers.
Rest I would like people to suggest. Come On! Media is the fourth pillar of the constitution.

First of Pardon My English, I don’t know much about it.
I haven’t read this hole article, but i am aware about what is written in this article. BHARAT as a ’so called RISING SUPERPOWER’ needs to be guided with truth, and the people of this country must know all the basic issues and the ongoing situations, but here is where the question rises, Who will tell us what is happening to the unseen parts of BHARAT, know one, because the new channels are busy selling their entertainment products, and people enjoy. Why the hell should anybody care about, they have already enough problems to deal with. The Loses are the “KING’S (Government’s)” responsibility. We don’t live in democratic society, the leaders do not represent us but they rule us, so if any news channel is drawing attention to the wrong side, it is all Government’s responsibility to deal with.
Here is the truth weather anybody accept or not, Bharat will never be a superpower if the people don’t change their way of thinking. Everyone needs to be informed and taught, 25% of this is the responsibility of the news channels rest is ours.
But this is not going to happen. Because know one likes to be bothered, but entertained.
News Channels !!!!! Keep on entertaining.
