BREAK - ing News

I hope you guys have enjoyed last five weeks to fullest in IPL. I can promise even more fun for another two more months from behalf of all these “24 x 7” news channels. Explanation needed?
Every news channel has moral responsibility to get into the root IPL scam.

They should also know who the owner of every team is. They should also track the Income tax data from all IPL teams. Their “confidential” sources should tell them the source of every penny coming and they should tell us in continuation.

Every news channel has an exclusive coverage to know which relative of whom is involved in which team. Interestingly they even know who is the dad of that mysterious girl who gets the document from IPL office and who is the “step” son-in-law of whom. Many other wonderful findings. Hats off to you !!!

One more breaking news which you people might have enjoyed in recent past. That is marriage of our one and only female tennis star Ms Sania Mirza (few others like Parul Goswami, Isha Toor, Tara Sharma If by any chance you know them) with one of greatest off spinner of our time Mr. Shoaib Malik. Now a days he is facing ban from Pakistan cricket board. Hence, utilized this time. Well, we should applause our media to know the whereabouts of his ex wife Ayesha Siddiqui (Which he denies). At last they are happily married and interviewed in most channels during prime time.

If you guys think that all these stuff is the breaking news. Then please stop reading and look for the next IT raid in IPL office or should know any pending ceremony of this couple.

If not. Then I’ll tell you what breaking news is. We have news which breaks around 200 lives in Bihar and Bengal. Which broke many families. Which destroyed more than 60,000 homes. I’m talking about the cyclone which hit eastern India and Bangladesh. It was on 14 April, 2010. I hope you know about this. How can you forget this? That day you might have watched match between Rajasthan Royals vs. Royal Challengers.
I hope you remember.. I hope !!

I don’t want to get into more geographical details to tell you the type of cyclone or reason of these winds etc.

I’m just trying to get along with this BREAK-ing news

May god give courage to affected families

Its really an irony that the so called media is all concerned about the lurid stuff rather than the facts of existence. May be your blog help them to search there souls. All the very best & keep up the good work.

You obviously make a very important point. The breaking-news nonsense has been going on for several years now and the Indian media has stooped down to an unsurpassed low. When all has been said and done, I think DD news might as well emerge to be the sanest media house that has still survived this consecration of trivia by these despicable news channels. But the DD and Prasar Bharti folks obviously need to get their act together and deliver much better quality programming updated to use the latest technology to be able to compete with them and vie for the viewers' attention.

On another note, it would be great if they also re-ran the classic teleseries of the 80s and put out more DVDs like the one for the Discovery of India that they have recently put out. I bought the set and I must admit it's been -- unexpectedly! -- very beautifully produced. Highly recommended!
