‘Breaking News’ indeed. What pathetic chaps!!
And this is Breaking news. Way to go – Indian Media. Hour on hour we have breaking news. If the Media cries wolf so frequently it would not be far when we will fail to notice the real breaking news when such occasions happen.
Dont break our head’s with such nonsensical news….
Indian media has reached its waterloo…
Wasn’t that during the Prince’s whirlwind India tour? When he stayed in poor, ostracized Dalits place.
When will the Rediscovery of India will be out? Similarly, is he also planning to get himself imprisoned to get a glimpse of world history?
This is nothing, it may even be real news. NDTV and The Week took the prize by elaborating on how he ate very few(or one) chapati and always had to have a bottle of a carbonated beverage instead of water(of course, this was during elections and NDTV had this programme of stalking netas from morning to night.)
Vinay.. Pathetic indeed… maybe they should call it “Breaking Wind” News…
Till now what was he eating?
I wouldn’t put it past Aaj Tak to come up with ‘Breaking Wind’ news too sometime soon. Something like, “Rahul ne dal-chawal khake teen baar paad maara. Umeed hai ki vo agli baar paanch baar lagataar paad maarenge”….
wah taj kya bath hai!
I think you had earlier posted some other similar gems from Aaj Tak too right? Something about Commissioner’s dog and Amitabh’s cold?
Why are they not telecasting live how he is eating? btb what was the next breaking news? “Rahul went to toilet to empty his stomach?”
Pardon my ignorance – but who is this “crown prince” about whom aaj tak is giving us so many details?
Prabhu Chawla must have gone coockoo…. By the way, there is a saying that as long as gullible people are there, conmen will continue to take birth. Likewise, as long as viewers are there, the channels will keep on feeding them all sorts of nonsense. These breaking news is nothing compared to horrible, silliest, stupidest mega serials that are dished out by the channels in any language.
It shows how the news channels have become. They want to broadcast news always. Whatever it is – whether it is Rahul Gandhi eating Daal-puri and Sabsi or he is drinking carbonated beverage. They are ignoring prime issues and putting this and that things news.
I think we as a country we tend to over react to anything that mentions Gandhi.We read a lot when The British papers carried hourly stories on Diana. Ditto with Kennedys right from John, Robert to Ted. Now they are writing a lot on Sarkozy and his wife. It’s bound to happen. Why would anybody like to read on commonwoman? Press will not run , if they print stories day and night on Floods, drought or calamities. There is no need to over-react or even react.I would say ,’Take it easy’ and move on.
