    Without the victim being into some sort of illegal activities, which could be taken advantage of, no journalist will print fake news in a newspaper!! Mostly those getting blackmailed are guilty of some hanky-panky activities!!

    Feku-giri is becoming a norm. One domestic Gas cylinder price rose from Rs. 600/= to Rs 1.100/= No news papers makes an issue. Why don't they write? They get envelops during the season.

    Yellow journalism is not any new to people... In olden days there was a print media company called Hai Maruti... The publisher was so vicious that he got killed by someone he troubled for money... It is very difficult to maintain personal integrity against easily available short sighted options... Time and again we will find such stories...
