So, who's been following news for the past week? The whole world that's who!
I for one sometimes wonder whether i want a minute by minute update of the unfolding events or do i want a concise report at the end of the day. This thought became stronger during the coverage of the recent Mumbai attack. It's a strange situation to be in, of course the news channels keeping you well posted is a blessing to your curious and obviously troubled mind but watching these events unfold as you look haplessly at the television possibly munching on a snack or sipping a drink is a bit like (spare me the sighs!) watching a matinee. Ever been in a hall watching a thriller and the killer is just gaining up on the victim and all you want to do is to scream "WATCH OUT!". Well, that's how i felt watching the news channels the past few days. The Taj was burning and the world was watching, I was "watching"!
