News channels claiming they are the first to visit hospitals having Mangalore plane crash victims, how does it matter who is the first to visit ? and showing this as an advertisement every 30 mins ? what else do we need ?
Same is the case with us, we are glued to television when these news are playing, 'tech savy' ones go to twitter/facebooks to get the updates. with celebrities paying homage and saying "god bless their soles".
Well, i think its "us" who wants these sensationalized news , did we(Indians) feel the same pain when plain crashed in Libya? well, we might have sympathized with that incident , but more pain was caused to see Mangalore crash. or do we feel the same pain when there is a bomb blast these days ? if there is a blast with less than 10 people dying in it, i hardly see people worried about the same. so be basically- we need something which is a happening around us or it should create a fear that 'I' could also have been a victim . Iam not saying this is only with Indians, Iam sure it was same effect when Libyans saw Mangalore crash.
well, at the end of it "Life Moves On .. " doesn't it ? we talk about it today and next time when something happens we are glued to television again .
