Bird of prey

@ Manu - Morality would be a strong word I was think more like decency!

@austere - Nah, Mehrauli blast special...saw this lady crying for the kid who died and the cameraman just kept following her....

Its not just the blasts but the way news is communicationed.. sensationalised as far as possible..

And as a viewer, it looks like that is exactly what we want to see..
