Newsotainment

I have always believed that Aaj Tak and India TV are unique experiments in the field of Indian electronic media. They over these years have transformed themselves from news channels to entertainment (perhaps cartoon) channels.


"Dhoni ki Saloni",
"Baagh-baaghin ka pyaar", "Woh tha sabse alag", "Chudail maange pyaaz" such have been their previous news stories.


Their news stories are mostly fake and those genuine comprise of basic facts at best. They are 90% percent of an entertainment channel and 10% of a news channel, which in itself is a very intelligent strategy. They pretend that they are serving news to people, but in the guise of that they are entertaining people, which keeps their investment in reporters and other reporting resources minimal, but at the same time provides them a nice audience and good TRPs and hence nice advertising revenues. Pretty good business model, no?

Increase Twitter Followers


Doing a research on Social Media scene, a question struck me. Is Twitter only for renowned persons who have got a good fan base? This question came to me because on 3rd January another Indian celebrity joined it and by the mid-day of 4th January his followers increased to more than 2000. So now his voice is heard by more than 2000 persons and counting... The celebrity is none other than Sharukh Khan!
Some might argue that given the popularity of Sharukh Khan, that is expected. But can anyone guide me that what will happen to any ordinary netizen who wants to use twitter and reach as many persons as he can? Not only twitter; it is just an example; what about the enormous amount of blog doing rounds on the internet? Regular posting is the right medicine prescribed by almost 90% of net doctors but is that helping you?
I wonder where this social media scene is heading towards. Do pour in your comments.
For the twitter users, here I am providing a list of users who will follow you back when you follow them, thus increasing your followers.  If you are a Twitter user, you probably know that having more followers doesn’t always equal better results.  In fact, in order to spread your influence in the Twitterverse, it is important to get followers who already have tons of followers themselves.  With this purpose, I have made this list as per the information from few other blogs..
So start following the Following twitter users and let them follow you!

silly media questions


hello friends what iam writing is here is very common but i want to write it because i saw it again .
we know the power of media specially i our country they can do anything that they want and they also help people and also gave us new information daily .

but sometime they just made a program for time pass or i should say sometime they gone mad.

just 2-3 days back iam watching AAJ TAK and i thought this is a election season so i will get the good news or something new on it and when i reached there i saw the reporter is at Jaipur and he is asking some people about the hot weather and in this sequence he asks a person"kaisa lag raha hai apako garmi me aur garmi me aap thanda pee rahe hai(how you feeling in this hot weather and you are drinking cold drink)"now what is that is that a question to be asked that person gives the answer and i laugh a loud on this questions.

sometime if someone lost something they goes there and asks"how you feeling"
i don't know but sometime they gone mad and asks some silly questions.


if anyone of you hear about any incident tell here.
