Sex,Lies & Radia tape

We all agree that the growth of Journalism has been tremendous over the past century particularly in India. The fact that democracy which has existed since the Country’s inception helped it to nurture & nourish through its most turbulent and trying circumstances.
Barring the emergency period in 1975 when the Indira Govt. had gagged them the Indian Journalism has always acted as a feeder between the intelligent thinkers, the policy makers, the economists & the common People.
Circa 2010 the media has made significant progress and is always on the move to seek and expose wily politicians, evil mongers in the society, even hailing any significant efforts or acheivements of individuals who have outperformed and outdone all tangible barriers etc.
The Wikileaks and the corresponding repercussions it had on the USA and its allies made the news very amusing. The USA was embarrassed by the startling revelations as it clearly showed the hollowness and its wily and mala fide intentions by asking its diplomats to spy on certain countries.Leaked cables have suggested that the US clearly laughed and opposed at the Indian Claims to the United Nations Security Council seat.However on his recent Visit to India Obama cleverly feigned ignorance and backed his support for the Permanent seat at the United Nations revealed the double standards.
The US admn and its stooges like Britain and France tried their very best to break the back of Wikileaks by charging the Co’s CEO with some outrageous charges like sexual assault etc plus succeeding in blocking the donations receivable through internet options like PAYPAL.
Last reports have mentioned that wikileaks is alive and kicking in a safe heaven at an undisclosed destination somewhere in Switzerland.
The whole world knows the true colours of this Chameleon called USA which has time and again poked its head in the internal affairs of other Countries ranging from Vietnam in 1968 to Afghanistan in 2007.
Similar disclosures were leaked by Nira Radia which has raised a question mark over the dubious roles portrayed by esteemed journalists like Barkha Dutt and Vir Sanghvi.
It is a Catch-22 situation.There should be some decency over the right to privacy as rightly pointed out by an equally indignant Mr.Ratan Tata who was unnecessarily dragged into this Controversy who unlike the Journalists did not fall to the bait of Radia.
Lot of people who had held Barkha Dutt in high esteem suddenly got wind of this over-ambitious lady who went a wee bit over the top by hobnobbing with the bespectacled crook Karunanidhi in the allotment of Cabinet berths for his Party MP’s during his alignment with the Present Congress big wigs.
The Public should be grateful to some extent to Ms.Nira Radia and other close associates for letting us know the truth about this over ambitious Ms.Dutt & Vir Sanghvi.

It is easy to see the nexus between the Congress Govt which awarded the Padma Bhushan to this wily Journalist cum agent of the age old Political Party.
In their over eagerness to have the best talent amongst their clan,TV Channels Promote these Star rated(over rated???) journalists by producing Programmes to boost the TRP’s and give impression to the gullible people following them that these guys work in the National Interest.

The moral of the story is every one wants to make big bucks at all costs in the minimum possible time frame shedding all sense of shame and morality.

Readers are welcome to go and search for bit of the News on Google and You Tube well before they are siphoned off/distorted/doctored by the Govt Authorities and find out the truth for themselves.
