There she was, all decked up and whining.
Out of the blue Devyani Khobragade
does an interview with a beat reporter of TimesNow.
She is famous for being arrested, strip-searched over US laws on domestic staff
payments. She was since moved to India’s UN office and the case has not been
prosecuted. As UN staff she enjoys immunity too. So what was her whining all
about considering she’s in the top rung of govt service and has channels and
access to seek justice for any grievance she has? It’s election time. Her father does have political ambitions and
both of them are neck deep in the Adarsh
housing scam. Two days before Maharashtra goes to polls and on the day campaign
ends, Timesnow brings you images of a “victim”:
People on SM now read the MSM like the back of their
hands. Khobragade is Marathi Manoos
so they hope the “victimhood” will cause some damage to the party they hate. So
anything that can strengthen the votes for the anti-BJP forces is game for
TimesNow. But people are also quick to point out why projecting a “Dalit” as victim can help the anti-BJP
cause. All very clever doggy tricks and the stats someone put up bear the
reason for it.
The history of journalism has seen interviews that
have had severe consequences. Journalists have faced the most intimidating of
personalities at great risk to their own lives. I mean seriously, who would
want to interview a “Fatwa-loving-instant-beheading”
Imam? This has nothing to do with our elections but a point about how serious
journos do serious business and not lame interviews for mere political pimping.
Watch (1 min):
That’s the late Mike Wallace (of CBS 60 Minutes) interviewing
the Ayatollah Khomeini. One can’t be sure Anwar Sadat was killed because of his
Fatwa but he was indeed assassinated in public view. Our MSM cowards like to
use “Dog tactics” for their political
pimping. I call it “Dog tactics” because one particular classless guy likes to
call everyone a dog or person of “no class”. That’s right, Rajdeep Sardesai in an earlier interview of Raj Thackeray told him
he “barks like a dog” and claimed that’s
what people say. Which people? Must be the people of Rajdeep’s HATO alliance for whom everyone else is
a barking dog. So what was RS doing when he recently asked Uddhav Thackeray if he was “asked to sit like a dog”? And treated
like a dog by the BJP during their seat negotiations for Maharashtra? Watch (21
secs):
That this ugly character passes as a
journo in our media is a disease that characterises our MSM. What’s with all
the “dog tactics”? There was indeed an outrage on the SM over such cheap
questions and statements. Rajdeep also posted a pic of him and UddhavT on
Twitter to demonstrate his friendly nature. But watch the video closely, listen
carefully and observe UddhavT’s behaviour when Rajdeep makes those dog
comments. UT doesn’t bat an eyelid
and is not perturbed or outraged one bit. Any other politician in his place
would have taken serious objection to Rajdeep’s language and line of questioning.
Not Uddhav Thackeray! Why? Because…
It would be clear if you observe closely
that this dog tactic is a choreographed
act. The BJP-Sena split happened at a time when the BJP is on the ascendancy and
SS is not doing all that well, going by opinion polls. Suddenly, SS-haters like
NDTV, Timesnow and Rajdeep are all lining up to interview UT and his son Aditya
or some Marathi Manoos. The interview is in Hindi and Rajdeep wants
Maharashtrians to hear how “poor UT” was treated like a “Dog” by the BJP. And
the message: “Please sympathise with
this (under?) dog and reject BJP”. Here are comments by TheJaggi in an article in Firstpost
that should offer you further reasons why Rajdeep’s dog-question is actually “friendly fire” to help gain Marathi
sympathy for UT:
I wonder how a party leader like UddhavT
wants to win elections by being willingly characterised as a dog. What Marathi
Manoos pride is he saving by such an act? A party that has the Tiger as its emblem is being called a
dog and the head happily glosses it over. Charming stuff! Rajdeep, who has
new-found sympathy for SS, has a history of contempt for the party. The
contempt was so deep that he didn’t even spare Smita Thackeray from his hostile ridicule. He calls her a mere “hotel
receptionist” just Moronshankar Aiyar refers to the “Chailwalla”. Take a look
at history:
In his choreographed interview with
UddhavT there weren’t any questions about Sena’s “Dadagiri” or “Poison” or
UT’s lack of charisma as Rajdeep has
consistently written about them. Nothing! It was all sympathy, love and
affection. It was a grand attempt by Rajdeep to help UT and SS play the “underdog”.
Now that the SS has split with BJP, Rajdeep and his HATO will go any length to
garner sympathy for SS but time and tide don’t stop for these media morons.
Their hatred for Modi can make them do anything but “dogs” usually remain dogs.
