Anna the Android ??: "One was that most of the star reporters of televisions news Channels” termed this event as “ historic ‘ where lakhs of people had converged in Support of Anna Hazare. Well, historic it may be in the sense that the Mahatma of Ralegaon Sidhi has sat at this place for the first time in full media glare and became more famous than IPL matches on those days and nights but where was the crowd of Lakhs of people ? To the best of my knowledge and sense of geography, that particular junction at Jantar Mantra would hardly be 40X 45 feet. Then where on earth would more than a lakh people converge ?
Secondly, some star anchors compared this to the movement of jayaprakash Narayan. I wonder if anyone of these would have seen actually seen that. I also wonder if they would have even see the rally of Chaudharu Charan Singh or Mahendra Singh Tikait which had taken the city of Delhi to random in 1990 for five days and those agitators didn’t leave the place even after 90 persons had died in the biting cold.
In this case almost 90 percent of Anchors doing One hour LIVE show or those hallowed correspondents hurling or inflicting “ Breaking News” at every hour were either totally ignorant and just too stupid in their comments and analysis as they had little sense of proportion or the understanding of the basic part of the whole issue. No wonder then that we are always accused o turning trivia into titanic and this was one such example.
