Will the media lose public trust after Naveen Jindal-Zee News case?

If one takes the comments as judgments, Zee News is already a convict and Jindal, a hero . Most of the comments directed at him are congratulatory in nature. But do the comments on the Jindal- Zee News case mean that the media will lose public trust or Jindal should feel like a hero?

The truth is that these comments do not matter at all because they do not form even the tiniest fraction of the internet audience in India which stands at more than 121 million. The media has no reason to worry about losing public confidence because a survey reveals that trust in the media has only gone North between 2011 and 2012.

Israel- Gaza conflict: Why there never will be peace in the Holy Land

Israel and Gaza have been fighting for quite a few years now. In the broader frame, Israel has fought or been fighting battles with almost every country in its neighbourhood. In the midst of all the bombings, the Holy Land of Jerusalem cries. It seems that peace will forever elude the place.

For now a truce has been called but the simmering tensions underneath the Egypt-endorsed truce can be clearly seen on the faces of the people of both Israel and Gaza. This clash must be seen under the broader perspective of the Israel-Palestine conflict which goes back to the time Israel was born in 1948.

India should not abolish death penalty

I do not care what the human rights people have to say simply because they are ambiguous in their demands. They may ask for death penalty in a rape case but won’t ask for the same in the case of a fanatic terrorist who raped an entire city. Why didn’t they stand for the rights of the policemen and the innocent people killed in the Mumbai terror attacks? If the death penalty is “inhuman”, was pumping bullets into the unarmed men and women or upholders of law a human act?

Thank you President Pranab for hanging Ajmal Kasab

Some are complaining that Kasab was not publicly hanged. They argue that if India saw the brutality of the terrorist through the news channels, his hanging too should have been aired for all to see.

Are they right?

Why China, not US Presidential Elections, deserves our interest (Part II)

It is barely possible for any story to bypass the government and bureaucratic hurdles and reach the world populace. Layer after layer of restrictions have made the emanation of free and fair information out of the country almost impossible. There could have been more negative stories coming out of China but we do not know them because the country has succeeded in controlling the media and the internet.

But despite all this, China is interesting, very interesting. The simple reason, to put psychologically, is because anything that is mysterious is interesting. China is the only superpower in the world which has been able to keep its mysterious image intact. Who until the day of the 2008 Beijing Olympics opening ceremony knew what was to come? Who was not left enthralled after watching the opening ceremony? That event can easily be termed China’s remarkable entry in the league of the big players of the world. Perhaps the steps, created through fireworks, shown going towards the ‘Bird’s Nest’ – the main stadium packed with leaders and spectators from across the world – were those China’s.

Why China, not US Presidential Elections, deserves our interest

I am not interested in the US Presidential Elections. I am not interested in who becomes the 45^th President of America. I am not interested in either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. I am not interested in what the world’s largest democracy is doing. I am interested in the events after Hu steps down in China. In fact China, not US Presidential Elections, deserves our interest.

Why Subramanian Swamy is not Sherlock Holmes

Subramanian Swamy’s way of digging out information puts all our investigative agencies to shame. Perhaps this is why he has earned the title of “Sherlock Swamy” from those close to him, by his Twitter followers and now the media.

Global warming or not, US must prevent another Hurricane Sandy

To people across the world, the US is like Superman. The people have the belief that there is nothing the US can’t do. Even the Americans believe the same and they feel that come what may, the US would take it all and still remain unscathed. There is no doubt that everything along the US east coast will be back to normal in a matter of days and there is no doubt that those who lost their near and dear ones to Sandy will move on with their lives. However it is time that strong steps are taken to prevent the rise of hurricanes of such ferocity.
