(Most)Rock-stars and other stories

The problem with both seems to be their claim to being champions of all issues ethical and moral. Then something comes up and they see their own interest with it, and its fine to contradict yourself.

Take Ali Azmat (of Junoon fame). He really is representative of the majority of Pakistani media. There's nothing wrong with a uniformed Chief executive for the nation as far as there are more channels (80 in number) and other outlets for people like him to live their lives comfortably. See him explode into a verbal marathon of apologetic mumbo-jumbo justifying their support for the current regime on IM's On the Fringe here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8265162940344781446&q=ali+azmat+IM

Guy doesn't know his facts well though. Talks about Bangalore as heaven (hoping the current govt will take us there) and then says Karnataka has a 100% literacy rate! That's Kerala. Karanataka's is in the 60's.

Another interesting watch is Salman Ahmed's (also of Junoon) documentary on Muslims in America post 9/11. Watch out for his republican aunt. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4899233805507290178&q=junoon
