My comment on an article by Shobhaa De in Deccan Chronicle News Paper dt 17/11/2012
The TV channels are resorting to projecting day-to-day trivial affairs as breaking news and cashing on it. They repeatedly flash the " Breaking News " banner on the screens while presenting the news adducing the viewers to eagerly concentrate on the screens. But all those breaking news turn out to be daily happening routine matters of some rape at a particular place, some robbery, some political clash, some fire accident or some burning of vehicles and property in mob violence etc. All these things have become very common now and projecting them as breaking news naturally spreads more hatred and violence in society. So some thing should be done to change the mentalities of our broadcasting media and the people in general.
