the attention span of the indian public has become alarmingly short.
look at the big stories hogging mindshare and attention:
tejpal
sec377
aap
these have been totally forgotten.
now it's
devyani
lokpal
all of them are nine-days' wonders, and generally quite meaningless too.
meanwhile the big picture:
a. how there is a scorched earth policy going on with the UPA systematically destroying institutions in anticipation of losing power
b. the changed scenario in asia with a more confident japan willing to stand up to chinese bullying
c. the impact of the iran-US rapproachment
d. how a possible modi government needs to move forward
does not get any attention at all
we have become, like america, addicted to fast food and throwaway stories.
