Media Factor

This post might look old, it has a point to be noted....
This topic should have been posted earlier, but then this blog spot did not exist.

Recently there was an issue when actor Richard Gere kissed Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty at an Aids awareness rally in New Delhi. There was a warrant issued in the name of Mr. Gere for display off affection in Public. This made the Media arise and take up the stage.

All News channels and Media personals wanted coverage on this news. The images of Gere kissing Shilpa were continuously being shown on the news and published in Magazines and News papers.

Here don't we think that we forgot why it was a news. The issue was that kissing Shilpa was an inappropriate move by Gere when in the public. There were some 1000 or more people who watched the rally. So Gere's move was noticed by that amount of people. It was not as public as the Media made it. If kissing in public is inappropriate, WHY DID THE MEDIA DISPLAY ITS IMAGES ALL OVER!

The I suppose we should also stop those images from being published. Because now Gere's actions are being more public(thanks to the Media to make it PUBLIC).
