Championing the cow
Zee TV is riding the anti cow slaughter bandwagon. On Sunday
when all other channels were busy analysing why India lost the ODI series against South Africa, a Zee anchor launched into a 9 pm harangue on cow slaughter: Dharm bechain, kanoon lachar." (Religion is restless, the law is helpless.) It was billed as an expose on cow trafficking and the slaughter of the animal for beef. If the powers that be are hassled by the rest of the media's stand on the lynching for beef and cow slaughter issue, they can count on a powerful media ally in Zee.
