I just wanted to write about the channel which we have loved for so long right from our school days the Channel 9 of Australia which has been instrumental and frontrunner in broadcasting cricket series in Australia. I have been watching this sports channel right from the Benson and Hedges cup of 1985 where Ravi Shastri won the Man of the Series award till the recent ongoing Aus Vs SA series.
One of the good things the sports channel has been doing is to use the technology and the amount of effort it puts in making the game of cricket so interesting. Also one has to understand that the matches start at 5 AM IST (if it is a Day match) when our minds are clear
It was a different move to have 3 commentators doing the commentary instead of the traditional 2. On top of this the quality of cricket matched played,in this current year South Africans are playing tremendous cricket and the best quality of coverage and commentary makes you sit and watch Test Cricket with the same patience that you have for T20 or One day internationals
We have quiet a few criticisms of the commentary being too much Australian supportive/one sided/etc but neverthless it is awsome to watch a Test match or a one day Match in this channel.
Also we have to credit the Australian Board of having this tie up for so long and not making it as a dusty one like what we have in India.
Though we have a quiet a good India vs Englad Series Neo Sports coverage was way below expectations and standards compare to these channels. BCCI should look into these aspects and see if some improvements can be brought down there

Vote Bank Politics
We are seeing one of the worst politicians in the Indian History in the name of AR Antulay.
I'm not sure what he is trying to say but what ever he has did has shown how much narrow minded we are and these politicians are only there to grab votes and earn money. It is high time the people understand these ,do not get tied on religious or linguistics barriers and get rid of these un ethical and morale less people
When the whole country is shocked on the Mumbai incident ,this minister is questioning the deaths of some nobel people as a conspiracy. In fact those brave men should be rewarded more than what they deserve for.
The congress party is totally useless which has a accidental PM,Videshi Leader and the rest only look for Votes and nothing else.
Lets hope that the people come out of the barriers and teach lessons to all these politicians who do the job as a business ,they have forgotten that they need to do Service not do business

Shoe Spree
The recent incident on US president George W Bush in IRAQ has shown one thing that the world is in freedom of speech and Expression to its maximum extent
For Bush/America this may not be a big issue to worry about but the kind of media attention this issue us getting outside is too much than expected
One thing we should understand is the definition of Freedom of Speech or Expression should not be mis understood and people do what ever they want or like.
Even the Indian Media is not criticizing it rather expressing it as shame on the act of journilists.
Media holds higher responsibilites when the show some news as the impact could be both positive as well as negative.
I'm sure every person has a agony on some thing or the other but there is some way to express your agony and not do what ever u like
I guess future pressmeets does not mandate for Bare foot Journalists going forward
