Re: [IAC#RG] Sorry state of media in India

channels pickup a issue for discussion immediately,without fact
finding,to grab & raise the TRP.The expressions & words of the anchor
reflects the view of the
T V channel.Viewers sometimes feel aghast after viewing,the other day,
another channel on the issue.The TRP raising competition be
discouraged.
