Plus imagine, how easily could someone's public image be enhanced or tainted permanently. :(<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />TC.<br /><br /><br /><b>@ Quirky Indian:</b><br /><br />Yes, you're right. And maybe you should read my subsequent two posts. You'll realize (or might have already realized), how badly was the news reported by IANS in case of the forced-delivery/infanticide.<br /><br />TC.<br /><br /><b>@ Srishti:</b><br /><br />I'd like your responses to this post, at least NOW. :)Ketanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622410643454108685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1117433809983410591.post-43226715821810110262009-12-11T18:13:33.797+05:302009-12-11T18:13:33.797+05:30ohh.

Most news today is suspect; full of biases and prejudices, opinions and slants. They are paid for, one way or the other.<br /><br />The Ashok Chavan articles are scandalous. But is it an issue? Are people concerned?<br /><br />Quirky IndianThe Quirky Indianhttp://quirkyindian.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1117433809983410591.post-52436523636650822122009-12-10T23:04:04.892+05:302009-12-10T23:04:04.892+05:30As sad as it may sound, sensational journalism sel...As sad as it may sound, sensational journalism sells... and that's a shame.mgeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204026245715229205noreply@blogger.com
