Indian News Channels

i was watching CNN international yesterday after i got news about the Las Vegas shooting and it is CNN I and BBC World Service that i always watch for international news. It is refreshing to watch these channels compared to our own Indian news channels. There is a big difference. There is no screaming and shouting that takes place like in the indian news channels. Everything is measured and controlled. The panelists that they call for discussions are technical experts on the field, not the political rabble rousers that we find in Indian news channels. The guy who shot the video was bought on live via audio, the news anchor did not interrupt him even once, he was not cut short or the words were not literally put into his mouth. The emphasis was on bringing you the news dispassionately, not making the news or concocting news. They did not draw their own conclusions about the identity of the killer or the motive behind it. That is the job of the law enforcement, they said.
