Media's repeated journey into irrelevance


This is the way the year ends not with a whimper, but a bang. Thank goodness. We must continue to stop the rona-dhona-moana, and start standing up for our rights and for the wronged. Here’s a list:-
Amit’s Apocalypse to be stopped in its Anti-national tracks. Ambani shaadis to wow the masses.
BJP and Banks alike should dump non-performing assets. Bullet-walking, not Bullets.
Citizenship should remain Constitutional. Climate shouldn’t change. Clickbait should be curtailed.
Defectors must be deserted; Demagogues detoxed.
Electile shouldn’t be dysfunctional; EC should function. Encounters should be policed.
FinMin should take the economy in hand, not point fingers.
Governance, give back; Government, step back; Ghoos and Ghoospaithiya, go back.
Hindutva without Hate-crimes or Harassment.
Intelligence shouldn’t all be Artificial. Instagram, Intermittent diets ok; IPR/ ID theft nokay.
Jobs should be protected; Judges should protect us.
Kashmirification of India must end.
Lovers, let them be. Loans, let them be given. ‘Likes’, let them keep coming.
Modi magic should get reality check. MeToo should check-male. M-L should be more Machine-learning than Marxism-Leninism.
NRC, NiMo, NPAs have created problems till the Nth degree. NOTA should apply to them all.
Omnipotent PM should stop being Omniabsent, or better still, stay out.
Poverty should remain good for Nobel, not for people; Priyanka/ Padukone, please remain good for all.
Queers & Co not hounded, but respected.
Ratan-Cyrus, do make up. Rahul Bajaj do keep speaking up.
Secularism/ Swachh Bharat/ Superfoods, more of; Sexual assault/ Sarkari Snooping/ Selfiecide, none of.
Terrorism/ Trolls, Down, Down! Team Thackeray, thumbs up.
Uri-style surgical strikes should be good for box-office, not ballotbox-office.
Virat, keep striking; Vikas, end your long-drawn strike.
Warhorse should keep state government stable; give nightmares to Centre.
X-rated films, X-spouses, X-ministers within limits; Extra toppings unlimited.
Yoga must-asana; Yogi thud-asana.
Z security should no longer be needed. Zen is.

My reply:- Wring out the old: What to dump/retain as the year turns to a Tautological 2020. This is the way the year ends not dumber, but better. Thank goodness. We must continue to stop these self appointed media Dronas*  -rona-paise dhona humko and start standing up for  right journalism and start being a fourth pillar and stop being a mere froth filler . Here’s a list:
All Arm chair criticisms must be arrested within Air-conditioned chambers. Assigning labels Avowed for masses.
Biased MSM blabbers and selective blamers alike be Banned. Ballot given mandate, not statements from those out          on bail.
Criticisms must be Constructive. Criteria of judgment must not Change; Clandestine agenda must be Curtailed.
Distorted versions must be defeated; verbal Diarrhea Dewormed.
Editorials must not be malfunctional. Ethical standards of journalism must function. Expressions should be polished.
Fine journalism must make responsible reporting based on first hand information not point fingers at social media.
Good journalism get back; Greed for TRP step back; bustarella  [1]  and Bérézina [2] back off.
Handschuhschneeballwerfer [3] without hidden agenda or hiding behind media freedom.
Intelligence shouldn’t be all left Fanatical. India centric involvement ok; Internationalizing internal issues not okay.
Job creators must be promoted; Judges should be protected from media trails.
Kuddelmuddel [4] admiration in India must end.
Lovable, let us all become. Loans, let them be given but ensure repayment. Let us make India that everyone from all     over the world ‘like’ to keep coming.
Modi’s magic has checked irregularities really. M-L should be Maximum-Leverage of synergy of any ‘ism’ the Makes Life pleasant in reality beyond Media Lies.
Nth degree problems were mostly inherited legacy. NOTA should apply to all media lies too.
Omnipresent media should stop acting Omniscient, or better still, stay away from interfering in judiciary, legislature and national security matters.
Poverty is neither good nor noble for anyone; Professionals in other domains don’t need media advice that too on goodness and correctness.
Queer that self proclaimed omniscient media persons neither know Sikhandin and Arjuna as Brihannala nor introspect Kamasutra that talks about it.
Ratan-Cyrus, Bajaj and all other corporate giants speak up to take India’s growth up and not allow MSM to make up stories.
Secularism/ Swachh Bharat/ Swacch broadcast/ Superfoods, need more of; Sensationalism/Scandal generation/Sponsoring anti-nationalism all these by MSM none of.
Torturing and tormenting of any type down down! Teamed and political expediency notched up.
Uri-style surgical strikes keeps Us all safe in our office, sad that media offices don’t know that.
Virat and Virat India keep striking; Vikas is on march despite MSM narratives
Warring is the mentality of ‘intolerance’ brigade of pantomime horses; stable government and able administration is centered on people centric and environment friendly policies.
X-ray within and analyze performances of X-governments; Extrapolating pet ideologies have extra polluted the social discourse.
Yoga or anything else need not be a must but everything depends on upayoga and prayoga.
Zenithal zooming of nation’s economy needs to be secured first Zen is CitiZen centric.
