Gulte Movie News And Politics
The kind of sensationalism and the desperation to break news is a key hallmark of the Indian media system. This was an humiliating display with the media coverage that was given for the Tamil Nadu assembly election yesterday.
In a series of videos that are now going viral on social media, we get to see the kind of pathetic Media coverage that the Tamil Nadu elections had witnessed yesterday.
The over enthusiastic media channels and live coverage, reporters carried the media equipment and cameras into the polling booths and captured live footage.
The degree of media coverage was so severe that people could even see celebrities and common folk alike operating the EVM. Media cameras captured the footage of common public and also celebrities casting their vote in the election booths.
This happened even for superstar Rajinikanth, who was casting his vote in Chennai while the media cameras tried their best to capture which party he was voting for in the EVM.
Generally, the election commission is very strict about usage of electronics and gadgets at the polling stations. But this was not the case yesterday, as Media cameras themselves, happened to be inside the polling stations.
A person casting his vote must be a highly secretive affair and should be known only to him or her, and no one else. But thanks to the sensationalism that is nurtured by certain media channels, even the EVM operations became public yesterday.
Note: The EVM-related videos are not shared here to maintain the dignity and rules of the election.
