Media in India

I saw this video on Youtube today and just had to vent out my horror somehow. This interviewer who sadly calls herself the press and a reporter gets an interview with Ram Jethmalani and tries to make it into a emotional 70s movie drama.

She keeps asking why he is defending somebody the country believes is a criminal. The guy clearly explains why he is doing it and mentions its his duty as a lawyer to defend everyone and in fact is against the oath he took as a lawyer. She immediately ignores it and goes off on a predetermined line of questioning trying to make it into an emotional roller coaster of an interview.

I cringed watching her speak, felt horrified that someone could sell herself like that and stoop to such a level. All I can say is wow! I do not know how Ram Jethamalani resisted the urge to reach out and slap her upside the head. She is worse than Hannity because she does this for money. At least Hannity does what he does because he believes in something. She is the worst kind of prostitute one can find.

She is apparently Sagarika Ghosh, a disgrace to all reporters and probably the worst of all the people that got some TV time.

A sad mirror of Indian media.

Sagarika Ghosh appears on TV in India daily. You know, India lives with AIDS, prostitutes, mosquitoes, cockroaches, filthy drains, the sickness of politicians.. and all of them capsuled into single entities like this 'managing editor' of the popular Indian news TV channel.
