Nutty's Sunny days
The Sun seems to be smiling on Nutty. He seems to be everywhere giving quotes by the dozen, in papers, in the newschannels and also dining and wining with Pimp Singh. Yesterday Karan Thapar took him to the cleaners and it was quite amusing to see nutty being on the defensive.
This was in direct contrast to "Walk the talk" where you had Shekhar Gupta asking namby pamby questions and treating him in a reverend way. I have always admired Karan Thapar for his style and the manner in which he goes hammer and tongs at his guests. He always does his homework pretty well and is not afraid to ask anything. Critics say he is abrasive and doesn't let the other person speak , that he asks a question and answers it himself. Its a very unfair assessment because the occasions such incidents happen is when the guest starts fumbling and does not answer. Yesterday he gave Natwar Singh lot of time to talk and there was not one instance when he didn't let him have his say. I think the Congress would be more than happy if Nutty joins the wrestler's party.
Whoa! Arnab Goswami continued his comic act and must admit he has natural flair for comedy but alas, the mute question is when will the jains realise this and do something. Arnab when he was interviewing an American Diplomat on the Jaswant mole issue asked this priceless gem of a question ," Sir, does the US govt has moles in India" ? If I was the diplomat I would have given him a list of the moles operating with their cell nos. This man sure needs some special award for his IQ and one can write a book on the number of "faux pas" he has committed. One more priceless gem from the past was when APJ Abdul Kalam was elected as president and this Arnab was interviewing a scientist friend of Kalam. He asked him, " Since when do you know Abdul Kalam Azad" ? In the same programme, while addressing another scientist whose name was Sarvannan, Arnab called him as Mr. Kalam. I wish and pray that Arnab continues in providing us with such laughs. With his natural god given talent, I feel Arnab should have his own show called the THE ARNAB SPRINGER SHOW.
The issue of self praise is assuming gigantic proportions with Rajdeep. Earlier he was used to pat himself on the back once a week but now its everyday. Everyday he says "Only CNN-IBN is giving you this special insight" . Its even more silly with most people being unhappy with their post appraisal increase and is a classic example of preaching what you don't practice.

Its amazing how much ppl get paid to look idiots. Since you seem to have access to even these guys' TDS files, how much do they get paid? I think you can write a post on their salaries, that'll be entertaining...

Well,Karan Thapar is one area I completely disagree with you. This Tim Sebastian wannabe does not even come close. Well if he could get over his preening, smug, narcissistic outlook, he perhaps could learn the ABCs of conducting an interview. His smug countenance truly repels and the way he coaxes out his words through clenched teeth out of a corner of his mouth would perhaps better suit a C-grade Western! I cant remember the last time he let anybody complete a sentence and the way he imparts a sinister air to the most innocuous of questions gets on your nerves. Karan Thapar is his own soap opera... and he does not need anybody else on the other side of the table!
