KCR-Chiru meet sparks media speculation
Film star Chiranjeevi is in deep trouble. His father died only the other day. He and his family are still observing the mourning period. But mediapersons, who are insensitive to the things around them, have started speculating over a meeting between Chiranjeevi and Telangana Rashtra Samithi leader and former Union minister K Chandrasekhar Rao. Chandrasekhar Rao had called on the film star to express condolences and sympathies with him. But some mediapersons gave a political twist to the meeting. One newspaper has posted in its website that the two leaders had discussed a wide ranging issues including the political situation in the State and the country.
What the insensitive mediaperson or the media house failed to comprehend that the film star was not in a position to discuss politics. It was just a condolence meeting without any political overtones.
Even if there are some, those reporting the incident should be sensitive enough to respect the sensibilities of people and resort to responsible reporting. In their anxiety to create sensational news, these insensitive mediapersons and media houses attract the wrath of their readers and viewers. People are no fools to listen to or watch whatever these media houses dishes out in the name of news and analysis. The earlier they mend their ways and be sensitive to people's sentiments, the better for themselves and the media at large.
