Media's role
Kias Mamud, Uttara, Dhaka
I'm referring to your editorial 'PM's word of advice: Media has to report what's happening'. I fully appreciate the principle you laid down for news coverage. However, the problem is you don't seem to follow this principle of news coverage all the time. For example, I heard from BBC and VOA that big demonstrations were organised in Dhaka by Islamic and left parties against the American genocide in Falluja. But The Daily Star didn't cover it. On April 11, the DS covered an Iraq story in the front page without any photograph, whereas most other newspapers came out with photographs of Iraqi resistance.
