Media too playing divisive politics I have an observance about media playing divisive politics like our politicians. I have always observed that any criminals, whether for robbery, rape or murder , when caught from a minority community, they are masked with black clothes. Most recent being today's example. The guys who raped the American have been shown with their faces. They got defamed for life now. But the 5 robbers caught, who conducted robbery in 27 houses, being from minority community, are masked with black clothes. I strongly condemn this divisive attitude of the media. A criminal is a criminal from any community, from any country, from any caste or creed. I think every criminal's face should be published in newspaper & television so that people can stay alert from him.

Hi Prabhat I too am dead against the Bharat Jalao Party & their murderer PM in forever waiting but yest I don't support shoe throwing. It is emotional highjacking of a situation / issue. If you have a prob there are million other democratic ways to show it rather than just hurl a shoe / slipper.
NDTV: A very popular TV news media is funded by Gospels of Charity in Spain. Supports Communism. Recently it has developed a soft corner towards Pakistan because Pakistan President has allowed only this channel to be aired in Pakistan. Indian CEO Prannoy Roy is co-brother of Prakash Karat, General Secretary of the Communist party of India. His wife and Brinda Karat are sisters. Moreover Prannoy Roy is the uncle of Susannah Arundhati Roy, the 'author' and the anti-India anarchist.
And Prannoy himself claims to be a Christian; his mother is British. His anti-Hindu views show up clearly in the kind of reporting that his channel NDTV does.
India Today(Which includes AAJ TAK): which used to be the only national weekly who supported Hindus is now bought by NDTV!! Since then the tone has changed drastically and turned into Hindu bashing.
CNN-IBN: This is 100 percent funded by Southern Baptist Church with its branches in all over the world with HQ in US. The Church annually allocates $800 million for promotion of its channel. Its Indian head is Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife Sagarika Ghosh.
Hindu: The Chennai based newspaper 'the Hindu' is ironically a newspaper with strong anti-Hindu views. English daily, started over 125 years has been recently taken over by Joshua Society, Berne, Switzerland. N.Ram's wife is a Swiss national. It is in fact a well-known Commnunist mouthpiece. 75% of the editors in 'The Hindu' are christians.

Very well said Ramprasad. I fully agree with you. Be it a communist / christians or any other religion or region they are all Indians. Everyone can speak their mind coz the Constitution of the Repub of India gives you the right to speech, the freedom of speech. It is people like chill out who don't think in terms of India & Indians first which is the reason why we have so many probs plaging our country today.
Its fine in seeing people showing their interest on the leaders by throwing shoes and chappals. Its indeed they get the popularity soon being thrown on
He shud be either hanged or shud be put in jail for life time. Or probably he misunderstood to be a Congress rally ?. I think only Cong shud get slippers and chappals for their 60 year contribution to this country.
I WISH THE SLIPPER HAD FOUND IT'S TARGET.ADVANI DESERVES THIS TREATMENT FOR HIS VICIOUS SUSTAINED PERSONAL ATTACK ON PM AND THE GANDHI FAMILY.GOD BLESS THAT WORKER WHO CHUCKED THAT SLIPPER.

what rubbish. MMS is a good person but a rubber stamp of Sonia. When MMS was targetted, who reacted from Congress... Sonia, Rahul, Priyanka... wall from one family who control MMS.
Advani should have targetted economic position, wrong policy towards foreign investment which was more twords FII instead of FDI, too much linience towards one community, reservations in education and things.
Both parties are so foolish and incompetent in its own way.
