Is the Shiv Sena using the media to revive itself?

Time Posted by IBNLive at 01:13 PM, Feb 10, 2010 | Updated at 01:51 PM, Feb 15, 2010 in Shows

Today at 10 pm on Face The Nation, Bhupendra Chaubey asks a panel of experts whether media should boycott the Shiv Sena or not.

Media should expose the (wrong)doings of the Sena.
One must also expose the handling of the situation by a sleeping government.
If a small group of workers of sena can disturb everything in Bombay,what good the government is for ??

hats off to brave shahrukh

The congress government acts only when it is beneficial to itself not to the general public.

Well said. What good the Government is for? Only a burden on the purse of the people and not just Maharastrians.

Not only should Media boycott the Shivsainiks but also strongly condemn their attack on arts, sports, etc., which should be above politics and which helps in threading the various sects, castes, religions.

Neither should artists indulge in inflamatory statements to increase their TRP.

boycotting sena will not expose there wrong deeds to the nation, media is doing great job by exposing the evil designs of SECTARIAN SEPARATIST organization which is hurting the basic fabric of our nationhood.

The media should not have given so much coverage to this matter. The concerned authorities should be left to handle this.

Starve them of the hidden hunger for the media attention

Behind every political party's overture especially those manifesting in the street there is a camera lens that creates an impetus to perform .

It is not wise to boycott Shiv Sena or any other organization.If you boycott them,then you cannot expose their wrong doings.
The media should not expect that all the political organizations including the general public would always like its coverage of news as impartial.
Some like it, others are angry.The media should not get upset and boycott anybody.

Like the child crying to seek and attract attention , Sainiks too have been taking to the streets to seek media attention.

The day the media decides to black them out , mark me , the atrocities will get tuned down and they will start behaving better .

It has happened in the past and there is no reason why the boycott cannot be an effective means to silence them to a large measure .
