NDTV, CNN-IBN, Times Now Accused of abetting Mumbai Terror Attack

Whether the terrorists are foreigners are not, the answer to the question of local assistance to the foregin terrorists is yet to be answered the 24 hour News Channel like NDTV, CNN-IBN, Times Now and Headlines Today are clearly playing an anti-national role.This morning the news channels beamed live footage of NSG commandos being airdropped on the attacked building. Any terrorist inside the building had the enormous advantage of knowing how many commandos were entering and from which position. This was a very specific example. Right from announcing when NSG forces arrived to the number of security forces, the news channels are doing all, in utmost competitive vigour, that they can to keep updated the terrorists inside the attacked building and their accomplices in the outside world with whom the attackers might have possibly maintained contact.The sheer pressure for eye-balls and rivalry amongst news channels is sabotaging the already fragile national security scene. It took all of 40 hours since the first pictures for the Army to 'request' news channels to not beam live pictures. A more powerful government would have ordered the eviction of news channels.News Channels have their utility of sending messages about the hurt, the missing and the stranded and they should just stick to that. Even if the capture of the attackers is delayed by as much as a minute on account of the advantage that the news channels give them, the news channels are playing an anti-national, pro-terrorist role ( even during peace time, this writer is of the view that several news anchors play a divisive anti-national role)Is the government so weak that they cannot control media in times like these ?
