Have you guys ever noticed what actually happens when we wish to watch important events of the day or try to catch something big or when look for something interesting in news channels?.....
Well, I have been observing for quite sometimes that mostly, we keep on searching and searching and searching… and get either all bogus things or nothing at all. At last we quit and move to other genres.
Whenever I fail in my exploration of News (almost everyday!), a fatal sentiment comes in mind… what the hell is going on? What’s wrong with these news channels? Where’s the news, man?
A few questions comes in my mind every now and then and I strongly believe most of you guys must have gone through these questions sometimes or other during last few years of your television watching-
* Does news means sensational stories only?
* What’s the reason that no serious debate is conducted on government policies in news channels?
* Why political mockery, cricket, page3 gossips, sex and comedy circus are only being broadcasted in the name of news ignoring countrywide dangerous crisis everywhere?
* Does politically motivated bizarre statements of our netas and special comments of self claimed intellectuals on every occasion is what we look for in news?
* Why important incidents of small states and smaller places never become news other than bomb blasts, train accidents and PM’s visit in it?
* And why ……….???
We usually think that media is keeping eyes on everything, unearthing all the conspiracies and raising voice against every misdoings. But the truth is totally different.
It seems that main objectives (may be “only”) of News Channels are to raise TRP, increase subscription and attract advertisement so that maximum profit can be generated from it. That’s the reason Jo beekta hai, sirf wohi dikhta hai…!
That’s the reason that there is no alarm during any severe crisis and we are always bestowed with entertainment in the name of news; surely, to misguide our conscience.
I guess, we all know these things but what I can’t guess is where the media and we all are heading to. Can anyone tell me what the solution is to get out of all this nonsense?

I really appreciate your thought but now you have to think why the news channels are showing this kind of crap ... don't you feel something wrong with new generation.. why they are helping to these kind of news channels, watching their crap and increasing their TRP.. New channel will change their attitude only when we are going to change our.
