Burkha Dutt's acts of foolishness continue (there is a popular story about how she was responsible for the death of two soldiers in Kargil war through her "journalism of courage"). At about 8 mins into the video, Arun Shourie asks if journalists actually make the effort to read the text themselves or just go around asking people for sound bites. His question on the use of adjectives is also very valid.
