Team Anna - Is media biased?

Recently there have been a lot of acquisition against people who are in Team Anna. I do not have any special consideration for Team Anna but indeed it is loaded with people whom I respect and so does the nation. One of main resources why I have developed a respect for these people is media. Media communicated the acheivements which made these people great!!! Sometimes like these I keep on wondering - is media biased now? Most of us know that people do not go into the main body of the news article, however headlines are read my most.

When I first saw this article - http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Kiran-Bedi-accused-of-inflating-bills-says-no-personal-gain/articleshow/10425634.cms - the first thing which came to my mind was -so what everone does it (considering that she used the money for herself. But when I read further the story was entirely different, one of the messages was that even the organizers knew about it and supported the cause... Also, this kind of arrangement is happening for some time now then why was this not published earlier? and why is it published now?

Leaving the question.. Is media Biased?

Getting out of Comfort Zone!!!!

Its been almost 3 years now that I am out of Cranfield but never a day goes by when I think to myself and say... YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE... i think his is one of the learnings from Cranfield which I keep close to my heart and when things get tough I say to myself the magic words and things are so easy after that!!! It also helps me to recognize what is stopping me -- it is myself!!!

Confession: Sometimes out of lazyness I stay back in the comfort zone and let the things go by :(

Spam emails

I just received an email from one of my acquintqnces that I my mailbox is sending spam emails to my contacts. Althugh I did not click any link on my emails but there might be some reason for the same. After further analysis, it sent spam email to the id which were saved in my contacts list.

DOES IT MEAN THAT I SHOULD STOP SAVING THE IDs IN THE YAHOO CONTACT LIST????

Yahooo... can you help me with the answer?????
