The incident affects me very differently as a mother, as a lapsed Baptist, or as a tabloid journalist. What baffles me as a reporter are the accusations that the foreign press corps has magnified this murder out of context in order to attack the bjp's image abroad. Such awful events will grab headlines: 'Widow Gladys 'Upset, not Angry' at Jungle Camp Missionary Murders.' Each interpretation, including the notion that Bible bonfires in Gujarat could be used as a plot to dislodge Soniaji, appeared first or simultaneously in the lively local press. It may be opportunistic, but it's my job to seize on sensational events. Here's another tale just as grisly as the tandoor murder case. (Or, for a recent example from my own country, as when young bigots gloated as 'Gay Youth Crucified on Gate.' )
