But I think it's very unfair. You see, it was ndtv that was sending in feed with a delay sometimes so that they could edit. Barkha reported over the phone whenever she felt that they could not show images of where she was so as not to hamper the rescue op. Also, enough channels spoke of the NSG being on floor so and so now, sending out a live feed o our strategy. Out of all channels that I saw, NDTV was perhaps least sensationalist. They didn't have weird graphics or reporters freaking out they were being beamed up by aliens. they may have had some lapse in judgement, but NDTV didn't screw up. Atleast I don't think so. Oh and the “They are in my bathroom” SMS... goosebumps. Hope her family deals with this the best they can. I have read tweets and blogs talking about Barkha Dutt’s lapse in judgement.
