I agree with you.
Good points u jotted down, “Or the heightened wave of superstition being spread thru over-imaginative “graphics/animation” by soothsayers, tarot readers, news anchors, and their ilk.”

Superb!

Its really amazing..
Reactive and pro-active theories were good..
Although, we need one authority to check on yellow journalism, but can judiciary do that ? if it can, then wouldn’t journalism react to that back again. Isn’t it a vicious circle as we face everyday in our democracy where every bit of it is broken and all lose ends are just left idle. No political party is interested in any pillar theory and would use yellow journalism or judiciary to their benefit anytime. So, with the democracy we live in, all the theories mentioned, all the books and pages written stand useless and a mere waste of ink. Once, we support Media for its amout of support in a few cases.. and on the second hand we criticize it for its lame NEWSFLASHES. But who are making them earn those TRPs, Isnt that WE again. So, all the questions remain unanswered and what all of us can do is just write articles and try to awaken 2 out of 1 billion. I am not a pesimist, neither I want to harm our social or political system. I am an Indian who sees my country degrading day by day. No matter how many new malls and highways we build, we are still cutting the roots which once made our country the golden bird, a land which rulers were proud of and a state where everybody felt as ONE and respect was one of our prime virtue.
Still, Juhi.. I love the way u write.. it always makes me emotional.
Love u soo much.

And though I may not agree on a few points or would have loved certain additions, I think this is a good starting point for a healthy discussion. - for starters, where’s IT in this?

Consider new-age innovative media: “Blogs” are an influential approach in their own right. And the recent “SMS” based rumours - isnt it a by-product of overactive journalism. Or the heightened wave of superstition being spread thru over-imaginative “graphics/animation” by soothsayers, tarot readers, news anchors, and their ilk.

Should IT be moralistic with professional ethics or consider itself only an enabler; - else the media can point fingers back and say, “Why only look at us as over-active?” Treat all stakeholders with the same vision.
