Generally,TV channels love to keep a sharp focus on VIPs and movie celebrities and in the process play up every crumb available, showing much that is not worth seeing. Not only the YSR tragedy, but also Raj Kapoor's passing and Amitabh's illness coverage was massive but without quality. After a while, it becomes repetitive and tiresome. Mr.Rao,

Every channel overdid it, almost every channel presented a chaotic scene. There was hardly any editorial control between the reporter on ground and the viewer in drawing room. The story literally caught every editor by his/her neck! Venkat, I’m with you one hundred percent on YSR story! Every channel overdid it, almost every channel presented a chaotic scene.
