Hypocrisy of a moralising media

The imminent swearing in of Shibu Soren as Jharkhand Chief Minister
has evoked a strong moralising media. Anchors have been quick to call
it a 'marriage of convenience'. Not that I approve of the lack of
principles by courge political parties - Congress which was desperate
to induct Soren into the Union Cabinet is crying foul, the BJP which
batted against tainted ministers then is Soren's saviour today.
But suppose the BJP had stayed away from the JMM, no party were in a
position to form government, and President's Rule had dragged on in
the state one can imagine the moralising tone of Sagarika Ghose, '
Can't politicians bury their differences for the sake of the people of
the state'. The media knows best.
