Nidi Razdan's interview

I wanted to blog about this today morning but couldn’t because of time constraints. Yesterday there was this hartal by the Honda employees because around fifty workers were laid off… and the silent protest got pretty violent because the police began to brutally lathi charge the people, who in turn reacted by burning the police jeeps and attacking the police themselves. Then the police came back with reinforcements, and managed to subdue the… miscreants. The point being, that when Nidi Razdan of NDTV interviewed the fellow who was the head of the union or something, she managed to make him angry. When he became angry, he also became frustrated and started giving all nonsensical answers, started spluttering and such like. Many NDTV interviewers think that it is cool for their show if you get the people you are interviewing angry – especially when political motives are involved. Those idiots do not know that people who are angry don’t give correct replies, and if they do not give correct replies, then probably there is no point in the interview.
But when it comes to politicians, you really cannot say. Myabe when they are angry, the truth comes out.
Yeah right…
