A few days ago, the Election Commission announced the dates for the upcoming Gujarat polls.
Just today, the Fearless People’s Paper blows the lid off the horrid Gujarat carnage bringing us all kinds of turbid inside information. It calls it the most important story of our time.
Wonder what they were doing till now…Fie on me if I detect a connection between the poll announcement and this shocking expose. They’re just doing their Fourth Estatish duties.
Fair. Fearless. Free.
Over to you, Barbar Indian.

Todays so called sting contains all the same stories told by likes Shobha de in2002. There is no difference.
All this is irrelevent today in Gujrat. Gujrat CM is busy since last 5 years in development work only. He does not give time to his own partymen also without a good reason.
Most unfortunate part of todays sting on Aaj Tak is that ‘the train caught fire in which about 55 died.’So much agaist Hindus and 55 passangers burnt alive is JUST THAT TRAIN CAUGHT FIRE ?

Tehelka, the paper where Dilip D’Souza and his pappa J B D’Souza help found with a small contribution of Rs 1 lakh each. He should be mighty pleased with this - if this doesn’t breath some life into his dead “blog” I can’t imagine what can.
About 6 months ago Tarun Tejpal was openly functioning as an activist against Gujarat Govt(http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/apr/11uppoll3.htm)
He can be hardly considered as an objective reporter.

Well said
But aside, are there no rules from the Press council about financiers using the media as a route for their personal agendas

Tehalka is the ‘Official Congress Spokesperson’ so what else did u expect?
BTW,if any of your reader know about any sting operation to find out the truth behind the 1984 Sikh massacre,do let me know.I wonder Tehalka would dug out some RSS BJP connection there too.

You are forgetting that a Mulla Congress MLA was behind the Godhra train “accident” as well.

[...] One of my pet Kannada proverbs goes something like this: you act like I’ve hit you and I’ll pretend I’m weeping. After the Paper of the Bold and the Fearless published the damning Gujarat revelations at a rather opportune time, the Congress party has lost no time in reacting to it. [...]

Tehelka is so “FAIR ” tht whenBaba Rahul said the famous statement “i could have become PM if i wished to ” then he backed off but Suprise Suprise even FREE Independent Fearless Tehelka said it was “mistake ” it was “off the record ” statment not meant to be published (sic) !!!

It is right that the timing of the sting operation can be questioned, I feel that it is not a sting operation but a stink operation, it can be questioned why was tehelka silent in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 or even in 2006. Recently a person from tehelka was on CNN-IBN and when asked about the timing he did not said anything about that but just kept insisting that it was a genocide, why dont tehelka people do a sting operation on congress leaders for their role in 84 anti sikh roits
