		<description>My take on why CNN-IBN and NDTV has gained credibility. As people we have always looked upon english speakers as more knowledgeable than the ones that do not speak the language. when well dressed and modern looking men and women speak english without a hiccup, most of our non-english speaking public develop credibility (due to our defeciency in speaking the language so fluently). our non-english speaking public beleve them to be true. I was a culprit of this once as i believe everword these people uttered on TV. Due to the already set in credibility factor, i did not pay attention to what their motives could be.  Now it is all clear... 

Another feature of english channels, is they have to distance themselves from the common public wearing bindis on their forehead and who have blind faith in the existence that it will all be taken care of (Hindu philosophy). They do this by shunning anythign Indian in their appearance and distance themselves by bashing the common man i described above. Only by distancing themselves from teh common man, they can show their affinity towards the sponsors that mainly target english speaking audience. English media have distanced themselves from the humble, modest Hindu that wears his faith on his sleeve (and in their foreheads). ELM&#039;s are meaningless. But, that humble man, believes the ELM&#039;s due to them looking cool and appearing to be credible.</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt;The father of unbiased English Media in India, The bhishma Pitamah of Indian nationalist movementâ€™s Intellectual discourse Shri Arun Shourie writes- http://www.indianexpress.com/news/surprised/392625/1

Shourie says what I have been saying for long, to wit:

&quot;Human rights? Yes, we will respect the human rights of the terrorists and their sponsors and their local supporters to the extent that they respect the human rights of our people.&quot;

In this context, it is worthwhile to recall the incarceration of Gujarat cop Vanzara. He eliminated a terrorist before the terrorist struck. We eulogize Karkare, NSG etc today, and rightly so, but Vanzara is languishing in custody for getting rid of a terrorist. A bunch of crypto-jihadis is gunning for his neck with legal activism. Guess who is helping them along? The Gujarat government, trying to show that it is even more concerned about &quot;human rights&quot; than they.</description>

		<description>Yoginder Sikand: &quot;Whether the attacks were indeed the handiwork of the Lashkar, as is being alleged, or of some other agency, such as the CIA and the Israseli Mossad, as others believe, remains to be fully investigated ..&quot;</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt;see also how the debate has moved to politicians and politicizing the terror. 

Debate is happening on internet and on the blogs. Tamasha is happening on &quot;mainstream&quot; media. Change the way you look at things!</description>

		<description>&gt;&gt;Hope next time the terrorists seize the NDTV and CNN-IBN office. 

Why will they? They let off a couple of Turks after the latter identified themselves.</description>

		<description>You all have to watch &quot;We the People&quot; and the way Simi  Garewaal got bashed up verbally for speaking the truth. Media lives in a denial mode. Hope next time the terrorists seize the NDTV and CNN-IBN office. They will get the first hand opportunity to show their secularism to the world.</description>
