Compare this to the Chennai media, which is _owned_ by the politicians.
Just observe the discrepancies reported by the various TV channels
during the election, especially the vote counting and results
announcement.

I agree with u.


+1.
This is unfortunate.
And very dangerous.
Out of the four pillars of democracy, two are already damaged ( or even
demolised) by the politicians. Unbiased/Unpressurised  Media - The Third
Pillar is also getting bent by push/pull pressures.
Really Scaring. If this allowed, the media will be slowly swallowed in full
by them, only to start bending the fourth pillar - The Judiciary.

I pray god for something constructive to happen to counter all these.
