Everybody everywhere every second seems to have something to report to
you live and exclusive. Some are almost bursting out of every inch of
that television set in front of you. Is news barking so loud it’s losing
its bite? TV watcher George Kuriyan certainly thinks so. ‘‘Investigative
news has gone. No one is willing to do a Tehelka anymore. Asianet,
Surya, Raj, they dish out the same news. Now, instead of one channel,
there are 10 channels rushing to get a politician’s sound byte. The
whole thing begins to sound trite,’’ he says.
