fish market

i heard this analogy used in schools especially when children scream a lot,make a lot of noise, make the class untidy , fight with each other and all.. once when the teacher enters the class and looks at the rubbish around she would shout at the top of her voice and say " stop talking!!! is this a class or a FISH MARKET?" i know this because i have heard this a lot of times from my teachers but was always wondering how a fish market would be( i am a veggie).. but i have come across something that would or that can easily replace the so called fish market analogy.. it would be better off comparing such untidy ,unorganized,greedy,noisy or a selfish bunch to the MEDIA rather than a fish market...

its very important for a person to know whats happening around him, (let it be about the country,city ,trade ,movies, sports, entertainment, health, classifieds, advertisements etc )based on these things that person analyses many thing and plans accordingly his future , his priorities etc.. for example if the weather forecast for the day says that it is going to rain he would be well prepared for that.. if one would say that the stocks are going up he would try and buy a few . if there is a bandh or something then he would skip work and all.. ........ so it is very important that one comes to know all these things ACCURATELY .. so the only medium of communication available for getting this stuff is a medium called MEDIA or say the news channels and the newspapers... am sure no one can make a move on any particular issue without relying on this medium of communication... this medium of giving access to information to the general pubic is very very important ... it goes hand in hand with our lives.. anything wrong with this can change the dimensions of our lives both horizontally and vertically..

but we have reached a point where dimensions don't matter anymore just like the information... from the days of highest standards it has crumbled to a new low level of selling news just like fish... from the stage of great ethics to a stage where blackmailing and bartering news has become the prime mover... from the hands of freedom fighters and great leaders into the hands of factionists and liquor contractors... once a strength to the public has become a puppet in the hands of power mongers.. once the most consistent weapon has become more inconsistent than the Indian batting order ... once the voice of the nation has turned into the voice of the ones who turn tables for their selfish interests... can we still call it the fourth estate or is it gifting estates as a return for manipulation ?? can we still get accurate and reliable news from all the media houses?? can we get impartial news anymore??

NO....

POWER... this is the disease that has affected the media and the above mentioned are the symptoms and causes... there is no cure for this disease and its spreading very fast and corrupting everything around... the media is one of the victims but its hitting everything badly leading us into the world of uncertainty... POWER is like a trap, in the beginning you seem to be under control but once you're totally into it you dont even know whether you are trapped or you have trapped.... and the media as mentioned , has become a fish market where every seafood(news) has its own price and season , once the right price comes and the time is ripe then innocent fishes( innocent victims) become the prey....

recent lalit modi stuff,sania mirza episode,analysis on different things, the way the media behaved during 26/11, the way they started publishing redundant news and how this entire thing is blown out of proportion for viewer ship adds more fuel to the existing fire which is taking thid disease to an advanced level... PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE but news cannot be prevented and its better off finding the cure for this...

PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN A SWORD.... its important we start training our young pens from the basics .. make these pens tough at the learning stage itself by training them vigorously with swords called truth and protecting them with armors called sincerity.... these pens should work with team mates like credibility and destroy opponents like greediness... work on plain white sheets which symbolize purity than the colored disguised filth that can never become fair... its only with such pens that great battles have been won without spilling a drop of blood and we need such pens again today to fight an even bigger opponent and crush it before it can crush us into deeper shit.. so the future of the fish market analogy, whether it stays or is replaced, is in the hands of a PEN and how its works from now on...
