Western Media Quotes

“Life in China was not as tricky as the western media portrayed it to be, nor was it as simple as people thought it was.”
― Santosh Kalwar, Where the Pandemic Started

“Qatar & The West (The Sonnet)

All of a sudden the entire west is peeved at Qatar,
Because only the west has exclusive rights to exposure.
All of a sudden we care about the migrant workers,
The Afghans, Palestinians and Kashmiris no longer matter.
Human rights issue here is, we don't care about human rights,
We only care about filling the air with hypocrisy and mania.
Our poster boy just dumped half his new workforce as garbage,
We buy Oscar, ditch Batgirl, and we diss Qatar for buying FIFA!
We are just peeved that the Arabs are showing off for a change,
Sure it's unacceptable, since showing off is a western tradition.
Yes, it's true that the Middle East reeks with human rights issues,
But it is also teeming with passion beyond western comprehension.
If you really care about human rights stick to a cause for more than a fortnight.
Otherwise keep your trap shut, lest you open and be proved a privileged white.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Himalayan Sonneteer: 100 Sonnets of Unsubmission

“When the non-western wrongly criticizes and abuses its culture, religion, and values; the Western media highlights that often, appreciating in all dimensions. However, if the same one, even points out only such subjects, as a question about Western distinctive attitude and role; the West flies and falls at its lowest level, contradicting with its principles of neutrality and freedom of press and speech, which pictures not only double standards; but also double dishonesty, with itself and readers. Despite that, Western media bother not, to realize and feel ignominy and moral and professional stigma.”

“Western Media is neither fair nor neutral; it is just money-monger, fake, and liar.”
― Ehsan Sehgal
