Few days back I was watching a news channel most of the time they broadcast news about bollywood but that day there was shocking news, A woman kicked, assaulted, beaten to death. This incident was filmed on camera by media crews. Only media people were not there, there were 10 armed cops also, So now should we criticize the media. "Just why the hell were they shooting, why could they not have intervened? Is it ok to just watch and shoot, while someone is getting murdered! Why just for a story someone especially media person can watch this crime. Like others I posted a comment on a news channel website but when I started to think that how much of this criticism is justified? Then I got few points,
There were 10 armed cops and may be only 4-5 reporters. Why did the police not intervene? If reporters intervened may be villagers will get aggressive on them, may be they kept on shooting, hoping that the cops will manage to save the lady.
I think there is some sense in that argument, think what will u do if you find your self in such conditions, Its not about the cops or media its about us about our felling, daily we see or hear the case of road rages and how many of us intervene in that, only because of we are in hurry, we don’t, its easy to criticize on media or police but its hard to take the initiative and be the one to say no to something wrong and appose against this.
