The power of media amazes me. Below are the links of news articles regarding the kerry-lugar bills. The first one is from an indian (ndtv) website and the other one is from a british (BBC) one.
You will note that the indian one is very negative and the british one is pretty positive. Of course, the indian intentions towards pakistan are very clear to anyone who observes the region. But how can one protect oneself from any brainwashing by any source of media? I am sure that Pakistani coverage of indian issues also contains bias.
How can we filter the bias from any news to make well informed decisions?
