So it goes like this.. Media asked Mr.A what are his thoughts on intolerance. Not coz they wanted his view but just to get sensationalized news from him. He politely explained his Stand or his belief without hurting anyone's belief. Now media got their sensationalized news for what they aimed. It's all over the press. Then they ask other persons say Mr. B, then Mr. C. They asked that Mr. A has said this and that what they think on that particular matter. Might Mr. B has different belief he told he don't believe there is any intolerance. Mr. C might agreed to what Mr. A has said and so on. So, media reported a strong tiff amongst all the persons: Mr.A, B and C. Now, their are reports in press with much twisted answers. Ignoring all the supporting words and focusing on what can create a tiff. Ppl (Mr. A,B & C) has started hating one another so as their supporting group. And here it starts riots of words. All the negative comments, arguments. How he can do this and that. He is not patriotic. He is anti national. I wanted to know How on earth sharing your view is anti - national that too in Democrat nation.

Here I want to point out which Nobody is realising what media is doing and what it is capable of. They are creating unnecessary fuss about anything and everything. They should not use their power to just get entertainment out of serious matter. Who will take them responsibility that this type of work, comments/news might leads to actually hatred and physical riots.

With this letter I am Not taking any political party side but before rising any issues / protest stop taking media's support.I know media is a very powerful medium but today they are so much corrupted and misusing their power to manipulate the ideas, news, facts and truth . If first a protest should be conducted it should be against them.

The creative ppl can't protest against them as they know they have this symbiosis relationship with media and so can't go against them. Right now whatever is happening it might be political agenda or whatever but this is another kind of riot- a word riots. From where digital medium is utilized for creating the word riots. This is as bad as the physical riots. This in no way helping/controlling the country. In fact, media ppl use this as a fuel to create more and more riots. Please, stop giving media this much power. They should know they can't control the country's working. Protest should happen against their working style, currently against their whirl ethics (which are none). Directors why you can't protest against media as all you can do is complain about media then take a step and stop giving them power.There are other medium you can use to share your views.

Nowadays, Media ppl has only two things to cover politics and bollywood. Our country is much more than this. Do reach out to the interior part of nation, stop focusing on bollywood stars for once and you will not rely on them to feed news to you. For once, use your power for something good for the country. And I still wonder for what barkha dutt is awarded padma shri. Might she has contributed in some one way but so as other not so called public figure. They are as civilian. Jury plzz look beyond the stars and media public face for giving the civilian award. There are many ppl who are doing silent work for actual good reasons.

Just last words it's enough and Media do stop playing with words, so word riots just to get news out of it. This is doing wrong for countrymen!!
