DesiPundit

Kirthi is frustrated by the state of journalism in India.

While we are quite familiar with the pettiness of journalists who ask ‘Aapko kaise Lag raha hai’ to folks who lost their families and homes in earthquakes; it is quite distressing to know that despite the source of pressing news (in this case the Chinese insurgence in Arunachal Pradesh) being handed to them on a silver platter by none other than Arun Shourie, they didn’t bother to get their act together and make it exclusive. They’d rather hang around at hip socialite parties happening a mile away from their cozy Delhi studio, taste some 5 star food and catch some politicos brat smoking pot or as in this case Shilpa Shetty kissing away to glory! So much for covering ground breaking realities.
