Delusions of Power and Grandeur.

Every journalist worth her salt or sometimes not worth anything also suffers from delusions of grandeur and power.
Who makes journos powerful?
or gives them this illusion of being powerful and being in control.
We meet and interact with a good number of individuals. Yes, we do need to humour our sources but does that "humouring" up mean we sell our souls?
We will tackle this issue in next few days...
Credibility is the biggest asset of those who manage this blog. Nope, accusations dont hurt us because we are clear. We are not ideologically bankrupt and do not make any claims of being "neutral". It is simply that we believe that no development, growth or governance can be justified if it is not seconded by a sound and equitably just social system. We like to believe and rigidly believe that economic growth has a hollow connotation if our moral values show a deficit.
Any economic growth along with a moral deficit as a partner is soul wrenching and we do not subscribe to this module.
In the coming days, we plan to take this debate further.
