Shame on print media!
What kind of country is this. A man SAMRESH JUNG has won 5 golds for the country in shooting and adjudged as THE BEST SPORTS PERSON of the CWG 2006. But no headlines or photos in the Printmedia. Only Aiswarya Roy and Rani was given prominence. Is it the way to treat the hero of the game.. that too from our country. Shame on media. As a public we will make this unsung hero poular in our country. Forward this message to all friends in your contact.- Chella, Editor, www.kanal-pakkangal.com

My online friend Sujatha Srinivasan an ex sports reporter with New Indian Express , left me an offline message saying, "Sir, Samresh Jung had already left Melbourne before the closing ceremony without receiving his surprise award. It was received by IOA President. So there was no photo opportunity there. Or else, our media wuld have definitely splashed it all over.".
STILL I AM NOT SATISFIED.. IMAGE IS NOT A PROBLE. There is no need for an actual photo of presentation. A HEADING with his action photo will do. But there is a reason in her arguement.. -chella
