Jarnail lost his head and ended up losing his shoe. Indian journalism, wild and irresponsible as it has become after the advent of live TV channels and that it has been quite often at sub-provincial levels, saw falling of one more canon of professional conduct.
But my question is why did Dainik Jagran, the daily newspaper whose reporter Jarnail is, black out the shoe-throwing story? Was it so scared of Home Minister and the government? Did it think that publishing a long apology in its front page was not enough to make amends with the political executive? I think, journalism has lost more by this conduct of India’s most read paper.
