EMPTY VESSEL

EMPTY VESSEL SOUNDS MUCH:
From morning till you go to bed media hammers you with information of their choice, it maybe SOME SORT OF Advertisement or COMMENT ON Indian film, soap opera, big B fever, or sachin’s villa Or Rahul Gandhi’s train journey or Sania Mirza’s under garments.
You are told some thing which you believe but actual nothing such event has happened, it is like a match or spot fixing.
They decide the top best actors, actress, player, films, rich person, best dressed person etc which are irreverent to AAM ADMI.For example they select their world cup team, best one day team or best politician. Try this “do not keep/read any news paper for a month and find out if it has done any good or bad to your life or family life. Nothing: You will not miss a thing. You just go to your office or retired friends and you will get all the update or breaking news from your colleagues/friends in the first half an hour of morning office in case you are still in job with a false birth certificate.
Earlier day’s news paper did not carry any vulgar photos of actress or models as it is today. For gossips there was Blitz, for more comprehensive news there was illustrated weekly, for IAS material there was Statesmen, for vulgarity or provocative pictures you had a clipped Debonair, for film news and gossips you had film fare, picture post. For sports one had the sports and past time or sport star.
Now you can get every thing in the daily news paper, thanks to sponsorship, political patronage, and advertisements. They decide the criminals, type of punishments, also decide who is innocent and who is a terrorist or a saint. Elephants/tigers/bear or python are made villain of the piece. People dying / or committing suicides in Orissa (my word star puts an under line in red in case I writeOdisha) are farmers because it’s not a congress ruled state.
Any thing the BJP party does is bad that’s what the press always tries to project as they know next election is a distant possibility.
The media has already decided about the next World cup winner as if they have put all their money with the team in blue.
To summarize: It’s like this. In a Rajasthan village, some people were interested to know the intensity of an elephant gas expulsion sound. The manhunt asked those who were interested to hear that- to pay rupees five per head, in that way he collected some two hundred fifty rupees. They waited and waited but nothing happened, the elephant started to walk away. People wanted to get back their money but the manhunt told he has already passed the gas, so no question of returning the money. Similarly are the Indian public(me included) and the Media.
