PMs meeting with TV news editors

Oh what a farce the meeting was. Instead of meeting the public the PM chose to meet the TV News editors. Who are these New channel editors????
One way or the other, their correspondents/news editors have been exposed in the RADIA TAPES. Who knows how many more people would have been exposed, if all the tapes would have come into the public domain.
What has the PM achieved in this meeting?
-Trying to say, that he is not in control and the Remote control is in somebody else's hand
-Trying to link the Ex-FM-P Chidambaran to the 2G Spectrum Scam
-Expressing his wish to continue in the office - come what may
-Requesting the media to report the good things and project a positive picture of the country and forget about all the scams(Anyway public's memory is short)
-Blaming coalition constraints on all the ills of the country
-Talking of GDP growth when common man is facing problem of infation, corruption, terrorism etc.

The surprising part is why none of the editors asked his response on any of the controversial issues. Was all the questions pre-determined?
However the same editors shout at the top of their voices in the panel discussions and do not allow the participants to react to many points and here we see them asking questions selectively. This reminds me of the inspection done by the Education depts. in our schools and the students are told that these are the questions we will be asking and these are the answers to be given and they even choose the students who will be asked such questions.

Shame on you Mr PM-Pls come clean. Mr Chidambaram-Pls react

Long live Democracy

Welcome to Arnab-onomics

Welcome to my blog Arnab-onomics.

For those who are a regular in watching news based channel, the name Arnab will bring lots of energy and vigour. One cannot miss Arnab Goswami's way of conducting the panel discussion, the way he talks on the issues of the day. One feels like shouting from the roof top, so that the whole world knows. This has gone to such an extent that my wife has started worrying about his health, as to whether he will/has hypertension? how he will be behaving with his family at home, etc. My 2 year daughter is threatened and told that if you do not have your dinner, then Arnab uncle will be coming on TV.(typical Gabar style)

What is this blog about?

Actually, it will be a mix up of of my views all the current affairs, sharing of useful information

With this Ganesh namah, Wish me best of luck
