Anchors go bonkers
There are times anchors go bonkers. They give prominence to undeserving people and subjects and waste lot of air time. This is more so after Delhi gang rape.

God and guns
“Where was God?” “How could God allow this to happen?” Such are some of the questions which some people ask when some tragedy occurs.
