I am not surprised that they favour the more dangerous troublemakers - the Congress, the communists, the muslim fundamentalists, and the administrators who could harass them or their employees. <BR/><BR/>What I don't understand is the pattern of patronage. Do we read IE just to criticise it? Do we watch NDTV just to disagree with the way they promote some and put down some? High time someone analyses media and audience behaviour. For example, am I supporting CPM when I watch NDTV? Is there a realistic answer to this question? An answer that will empower me to mould my TV viewing behaviour to express my views?iamfordemocracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01185248988052426659noreply@blogger.com
