"ഇപ്പോള് മാത്രമാണു മംഗലാപുരം സംഭവം ചില മാധ്യമങ്ങളിലെങ്കിലും വാര്ത്തയായത്, ഉപരിവര്ഗ്ഗത്തെ ബാധിച്ചപ്പോള് മാത്രം !.." Media coverage of such incidents, "being reported" cannot be all that positive impacts in all instances. One of the aims of such attacks by little known organizations like sreeram sena is to get political mileage through publicity. (I read in some reports that TV crews were already there before these criminals started their "Action"). Anyway, they got what they wanted, national newspapers carrying photos, reports, even writing editorials. In Y'day's HT it was the 2nd lead news on the front page with photograph, it also had a related lead story on the Nation page, and an editorial. Usually we hardly find any news from south in HT. Posting in the Web too in a way add on to this publicity. I am not arguing reports/response about such incidents should not be published. Is there any alternate way out to negate these publicity strategies?
Of course, I am sure Manglore victims must have been harassed again by certain media reports. 2009/1/28 Anivar Aravind <[email protected]> > > From a Blog Comment By Nalan > > http://www.hindu.com/2009/01/27/stories/2009012759421000.htm# > > ഇപ്പോള് മാത്രമാണു മംഗലാപുരം സംഭവം ചില മാധ്യമങ്ങളിലെങ്കിലും > വാര്ത്തയായത്, ഉപരിവര്ഗ്ഗത്തെ ബാധിച്ചപ്പോള് മാത്രം !.. > > താഴെയുള്ള ലിങ്കുകള് നോക്കൂ - കര്ണ്ണാടകത്തില് ഗുജറാത്ത് മോഡല് > പരീക്ഷണത്തിനു വേഗത കൂടിയത് ബി.ജെ.പി അധികാരത്തില് വന്നതോടെയാണു. > > Women are taking the brunt of 'activism' Moral policing > http://www.thehindu.com/2008/09/08/stories/2008090860790600.htm > > College bus stoned; five students and driver hurt > http://www.hindu.com/2008/12/28/stories/2008122850450100.htm > > Cracking down on 'violations of moral code' in Dakshina Kannada > http://www.thehindu.com/2008/09/07/stories/2008090750160100.htm > > How Karnataka is becoming Gujarat of the South > > http://communalism.blogspot.com/2008/03/how-karnataka-is-becoming-gujarat-of.html > > Two attacked for selling beef: vedike > http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/02/stories/2008040254390400.htm > > Egg on whose face? > http://www.hindu.com/2007/01/25/stories/2007012503421100.htm > > Ban on beef sale draws criticism > http://www.thehindu.com/2008/11/21/stories/2008112155520500.htm > > Who will control the vigilantes?
