Look I am an outsider and I will admit that as a criticism , however over the course of 1 year following the làsie and in particule subcontinent politique plus my classes in universitè, this is not journalism but rather a hitjob interview with a preconcieved agenda. A journalist should be neutral, his job is to seek the answers and present them to the viewers. There is good journalism and there is bad journalism and the more you defend just displays blind nationalism and nothing more. You know what this interview did , it actually made the president of pakistan who most people on this forum dispise get more respect. This is what that journalist accomplished really and once again I am not going after you but rather this type of journalism is the lowest of the lowest and as individuals we should differentiate right from wrong.
Let me again tell you that there is a strict difference between being rude and being tough. He was an Ex-president and he is no longer a dignitary to get an additional respect and that too from an Indian point of view. As a journalist, he voiced out people's concern and equally rude/tough was Musharraf to him. The topic we are discussing is not a public issue, its an issue affecting national sentiments and I do agree Arnab sometimes does get carried away, but I have never seen him crossing his limits. The core purpose of a Journalist/Journalism should be to project the national issues on table and question the opposition in a manner its viewers would have personally wanted.
We must always respect those who show spine to question no matter who he is having a debate with. Nowhere in the journalism is it written that a journalist cannot share his point of view. A journalist must be impartial which he is, as he never concludes the debate in his way. There are many who have tried to provoke him, but he sticks with his natural character of being TOUGH.
I hope you dont substitute me for a voice of a billion Indians, for it is my personal view on an Anchor I like.
