Do you check sources of the NEWS ? Or at least, whether it's "True"?

True or Not....Who cares about yesterday's or day before yesterday's stuff? Super Prank!!

I had my doubts when I read this. I thought it was mistaken identity! Because most Nazi war criminals will be dead by now.

It just explains how crazy are our media people to get hands on some news. In that run, who cares if it is genuine or not?

As said in the piece itself, there was a news about the presence of Russian real estate mafia in Goa, which is said to be fake now. Also there was a news in popular channels and printed media where a boy claimed to have got scholarship from NASA and got chance of higher studies in MIT, which again proved wrong later.

Sensational stuff is the need of the hour. Irresponsible media will go to any extent to hog the limelight. And they are successful because public forgets everything in a single day.

Thats the key to succes today! I agree that any thing and everything is pounced upon to be made into news!! The present crisis in Kashmire is due to media attention. Earlier there were just a few people protesting. The media has to be reigned in somehow!!
