Are newspapers doing what they should ?


Today, I read a news item in 'Mumbai Mirror(MM)' ; a publication of the times of india. It says on the front page : policemen posing as junkies in colleges to nab the drug gangs.

Who does MM want to tell this ? The policemen themselves ? or to us, maybe we should be careful while dealing in those things the next time around.

Won't this news act as a tip off for those involved, and make them more cautious, thus making the efforts of the policemen futile ? What do these people want to project ? They want to serve up some spicy entertainment, to give some 'tehelka' ; to be cheaper than other newspapers in every sense possible. They are very successful in their plans; only thing that it is not good for the nation in general.
