I enjoyed discussing you but I also felt same way that I agree to disagree with you. But, before I stop commenting on your remarks, I would like to make some comments on your latest remarks. Quote of Kunda Dixit ? Dudh ko Sakshi Biralo. What else he expect to write more in his ?Nepali Times? as he and his team are writing any thing he wants, particularly before and after ? 2 Feb Emergency?? We are enjoying his ?weekly? (basically it is balanced) and his brother?s Himal Khabar Patrika (mainly anti monarchy). There are other MUKHPATRA of various political parties celebrating GAIJATRA almost round the year. After seeing day to day news paper in internet do you still believe Kunda? Try to believe yourself as well. So far as local level journalists and local news papers are concerned, I think taboo put on them is ?not to write anything which supports/encourages Maoists terrorism and have negative impacts on security forces operations?. Such taboos are enforced by any countries involved in war and that applies to the USA and other democratic world as well. Regarding remarks made by Kunda, in order to justify his democratic postures, he has to criticize on something for the sake of doing so. Otherwise how can he fulfill his mission for which he has come all the way to USA? Obviously he can?t say freedom of speech and press freedom is restored at least to western mass. Anil, give some solid example. If you have presented multiple views from multiple sources, then I would have accepted. If you are following news of Nepalese media, hen tell me from your heart, what more do you expect media to write? What is the impact of local level media in our villages? Believe me informational war is one of the key deciding factors, particularly when question of winning hearts and minds comes. Maoists are also going all out to influence through information/propaganda war. Obviously government will also try to achieve supremacy in this field. More to follow
