India-Pak leaders keep cool, journos talk war

Indian and Pakistani leaders have ruled out war as an option to end the stalemate created by the Mumbai terror attacks but the media in both countries has been taking a bellicose stand and some say that Indian and Pakistani journalists have been acting like nationalists instead of like journalists.

Are Indian and Pakistani media creating jingoism? CNN-IBN’s Sagarika Ghose asked this on Face The Nation to senior Pakistani journalist and the Editor Geo TV news channel Hamid Mir; Strategic Affairs Editor of The Hindu newspaper Siddharth Varadarajan; and a former editor of the Panchjanya, the magazine of the Hindu nationalist organisation Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Tarun Vijay.
