Media

When media gripes about how people are not treated the same by law, I can't but see the irony staring right back at the face of the journalists - Does the media treat all persons the same? The murder of innocent sleeping street dwellers in Bombay is brushed under the carpet because the killer happens to be a famour movie star. The murder of a poetess has been allowed to disappear from the memory of the public because the accused belong to a ruling party. The slaying of the black bucks has been burried under the gushings of the stars latest media antics at one of the countless bashful ceremonies. And then the media has the gall to complain that the Seer has been treated more than what is right and fair than a common criminal because he is attended to by a team of highly trained doctors everyday. Mind you, nobody has shown as of now any evidence of his criminal activities.

In almost all the high socirty cases that have been brought to the attention of the public, it has been amptly clear that the law and the media does not mete the same treatment to one and all.
