The "Yellow"
Yellow, the color of sunshine, hope, and happiness, has conflicting associations. On one hand yellow stands for freshness, happiness, positivity, clarity, energy, optimism, enlightenment, remembrance, intellect, honor, loyalty, and joy, but on the other, it represents cowardice and deceit.
A dull or dingy yellow may represent caution, sickness, and jealousy.
If yellow is overused, it can have a disturbing effect. For example, it is a proven fact that babies cry more in rooms painted yellow.
Too much yellow causes loss of focus and makes it hard to complete a task.
Too much yellow also can cause people to become critical and demanding.
What is Yellow Journalism?
yellow journalism /noun
newspaper reports that are written in an exaggerated way in order to shock the readers
(अख़बार में) पाठकों को अचंभित करने के लिए बढ़ा-चढ़ा कर लिखी गई रिपोर्ट; सनसनीख़ेज़ पत्रकारिता, पीत पत्रकारिता
The Context
February 14 is usually the day of love, and the colour Red. While I was out for some work, I observed that a lot of people were wearing Red coloured outfits.
By the time I returned home, the "Red" had become the color of deceit, heinous, hatred, and cowardice, because some 40 of my mother India's brave hearts were cowardly ambushed by a jihadist - who was grown on the Indian soil, fed and nurtured by Indian ecosystem, but forgot his duties towards my motherland.
By that evening, the Indian social media was full of messages and videos. I came across an urging message "My request to please watch this video on the 10 things we should not do after the Pulwama attack. You may have your own opinion but do hear out this entire video".
I decided to give it a go. But couldn't go beyond 3 minutes because it was 10 times worse than a rotten egg or other items, which, I would not mention here due to my sensibilities.
And that compelled me to respond to his "Pak - propaganda" through this "real" estate.
Democracy in India is alive still, for all including "parasitical" dissenters - albeit with sense of responsibility !!
When I searched for the presenter, an innocent looking guy, I found that he was a "failed journalist" who claimed to have spent a decade in TV news anchoring, and now trying his luck in FM channels.
Maybe he was like many others from the famous Lutens's media gang, he too is “a failed TV" journo, carving a living for his family by "surrogate" journalism?
The Impact
Well, I was surprised to have received the same video from a number of other sources, totally unrelated, and some of my acquaintances heavily “prescribing” that video as "sensible".
This is a classic case of yellow journalism, coupled with someone suffering from the "Stockholm Syndrome (in which a captive person develops positive feeling for his captors).
When a person doesn’t have substance or doesn’t have the courage to gather the truth, he or she adopts the “parasitic” path of yellow journalism.
They make every attempt to ride the “event “ to gain publicity in every possible manner, even if it is cheap enough.
This learned presenter tried to project himself as a “daredevil “ who will ask “difficult" questions on this cowardly attack.
The blood of my jawan is wet still, and here he is making a nauseating efforts to gain publicity. He tries to establish himself as a political satirist, but there too I am sure he is failing spectacularly.
My Take
No doubt. New, Different and Bigger - this will the response from our armed forces and government.
Cheap and Propaganda Efforts like this one by this political satirist, should not be endorsed, at least that is what is expected from the so called self proclaimed “educated" class of citizens.
This presenter has such a low IQ that, he thinks, that the Indian armed forces, and the government of India (that too when Narendra Modi is PM, who is well-known among his enemies for his X-factor strategies), will respond in the similar manner like 2017.
As per this guy, His friends in Pakistan have already prepared as per syllabus of 2017. But, to this person of “low IQ than a 4th grader", Modi is fond of dropping questions that are not part of the “syllabus” his adversaries or enemies must have been by-hearting “.
Cheap and Worst, to say the least. May God give some mind (सदबुद्धि ) to these yellow journalists.
Do, Listen to my audio clip, as a reply to this and other comrades of the “Aman Ki Asha“ brigade.
We forever remain indebted to the supreme sacrifice made by of our bravehearts.
पत्रकारिता के नए भद्दे आयाम
1. ये बात 1999 के कारगिल युद्ध की है. उस वक्त एक भारतीय महिला पत्रकार ने आतंकवाद हिज्बुल का सरगना सय्यद सलाहुदिन का इंटरव्यू लिया, वोभी उसके कैंप मे. वो कॉफ़ी की चुस्की लेकर, पहाड़ी (जहा पर बड़ी लड़ाई चल रही थी) की तरफ हाथ दिखा, हस्कर कह रहा था देखी मेरी उपलब्धि? तुम्हारी सेना कुछ कर नहीं पाए. तुम्हारी नॉन कांग्रेस सरकार जिम्मेदार है.
हमारी पत्रकार इसके विरोध में कुछ भी कह नहीं पायी. या कहा नहीं. कोई विरोध नहीं किया.
2. ये दूसरी बात, 26/11 की है. जब ये घटना घट रही थी, तब इसी पत्रकार की नए दिल्ली चैनल पर भारत सरकार के गृह राज्यमंत्री श्री शकील अहमद साहब आते है. वे कहते है (उनके बिहारी एक्सेंट मे), ये तो मालेगांव मे जो हुआ उसका परिणाम है. पाकिस्तान का भाड़े का टट्टू कसाब cst पर गोलिया बरसा रहा था, उसी वक्त ये मंत्री साहब कह रह थे कि भारत के अन्तरिक मामले का नतीजा है.
किसी पत्रकार या अंकर ने उन्हे क्रॉस नहीं किया या नहीं पूछा कि ये कैसे?
3. पाकिस्तान की संसद भवन मे ये कहा जाता है पाकिस्तान का दुश्मन मोदी है. भारत नहीं. बार बार उनके प्रधानमंत्री और आर्मी के प्रवक्ता कहते है, भारत मे इलेक्शन है. मोदी ये सब करवा रहा है. तो इसका क्या मतलब है? पाकिस्तान का प्रधानमंत्री जिसने भारत के प्रधानमन्त्री को गवार कहा था, या फिर उनकी आर्मी तय करेगी कि भारत मे कब इलेक्शन होगे और किसकी सरकार बनेगी?
अब कुछ लोग बेनेफिट थेओरी की बात कर रहे है. उनका आकलन यह है अभी जो कुछ हो रहा है उसका बेनेफिट पंतप्रधान मोदी जी को मिलेगा इसलिए वही इसके पीछे है.
कुछ लोग को रोमन विचारक थॉमस हॉब्स के Levithian के कुछ अंश याद आ रहे हैं जिसमे वो कहते है कि राजा को सत्ता काबिल रखनी हो तो जबर्दस्ती लड़ाई करवानी चाहिये.
अगर इसी थेओरी की बात करे तो, ऊपरी तीनो भी केसेस मे तो ये साफ नजर आ रही है कि जो किया जा रहा था किसके बेनेफिट के लिए था.
क्या यही है पत्रकारिता के नए आयाम?
आपका क्या कहना है?
सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः
सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः,
सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु
मा कश्चिद् दुःख भाग्भवेत्।
ऊँ शांतिः शांतिः शांतिः
शुभम् भवतु,
