Between The Headlines by Shweta Ganesh Kumar
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Another GoodRead from Shweta Ganesh Kumar.
The second book of the Trilogy of "Travails of a news reporter" has started off with Satyabhama Menon starting off in her new location as a news reporter in a completely different ambience compared to her previous office. Her travails continued here also as she was completely immersed in all those kinds of reportings which had no relevance to social responsibility but only to increase the TRPs of the channel. Again under the pressure of her superiors. Though the satisfaction of being in her dream job prevailed, the dissatisfaction of not doing what exactly is more upon her concious mind ultimately leading her to take a decision of quitting her dream job and joining an NGO which is more into dealing with societal problems and later finding solutions to those problems by liaisoning with appropriate authorities.
Beautiful reading experience taking through in and out of how difficult is to be a reporter in a news channel, otherwise thought to be a glamorous job when viewed from out of the newsroom.
