What makes a news channel - National ?
Is it awareness about national issues ? Being aware of the different regions, religions and culture of India ? Who are the leaders that have shaped the identify and politics of different states ? Why so called “National parties” are struggling outside of the BIAMRU region ? Awareness about that ?
Nope. There is a simple set of Rules. You news reporting should be in English. You should pretend ignorance about other regions outside of the Hindi belt. Even other Indian names whether it is individuals, places or whatever…
Recently, it was really comical to watch the soldiers of the NDTV brigade struggle to pronounce the names of the trustees of Satya Sai Baba’s trust.
Guess the following name: Adee Kesaa Voo Loooo Nay Dooo !
Give up, it is Adikesavulu Naidu. I bet the same morons, will have no problems pronouncing “Silvio Berlusconi” or “Jacques Chirac” etc. in all their native glory. It would be really hilarious to see how many of these morons answer the question who is “Andhra Kesari”.
Welcome to the NDTV brigade of “national anchors”, we all should have seen the writing on the wall, when you realize NDTV stands for New Delhi Television. Yes, they have no intentions of paying attention to other regions of India… :-(
good to know about your anger.
