Is media in india creating havoc between common man and celebrities?

Answer
this question has two sides to it...the media and celebrities are intimately related .anything done by the celebs becomes a major news and they also pull these antics to make news and to remain visible in the eye of the people and media ...both the sectors complement each other..both thrive on gossip and news...
whether its creating a havoc between the common man and celebs is again dependent on what the common man chooses to think ,watch and accept...if he chooses only to watch and accept the superficial news then that leaves him quite susceptible to the manipulations of the media and the celebs...then he does not think on his own and chooses to accept someone Else's ideas..but if he delves into the matter and makes and informed decision or opinion then that certainly is a smarter choice..though it is true that the media can make or break someones image but it is also true that the final decision is in the hands of the common man...
also putting the Indian media under the scrutiny is not correct because the media in all the countries has the same job to do and according to me ,the Indian media is just in the initial stages of realizing its potential and thus is making some very bad decisions when it comes to reporting and story choosing...one can only hope that they will mature with experience
