Bhopal Gas Tragedy : Why don't they talk to arjun, swaraj and moti?

Stop quote and press conference journalism.
barring few, no newspaper felt need to talk to arjun, swaraj and moti. Is it better journalism? Is it even journalism? Where are the plans of editor in chiefs, group editors, national editors, executive editors of big newspapers? Everybody is doing same thing! 
If somebody could have accessed arjun, swaraj and moti and just asked them to narrate the memory of the accident, it would have been a great story!
Editors/journos need to be ideating, innovating and this should reflect in their journals. 

AND HINDUSTAN TIMES (New Delhi) AHEAD OF TIMES!
HT could not find this news front page worthy!

FIFA WORLD CUP : WHAT ARE WE GIVING TO OUR READERS








These are front pages of India's top english newspapers...
TOI gave a package on fifa world cup...but heading is very poor...will toi editors tell... what they want to communicate to their readers?
Same is the case with HT!

And Hindi newspapers are pathetic...
If one reads Hindustan's (India's number three newspaper readershipwise) masthead package, will find unconfirmed informations and filthy backgrounders and bogus design!
Bhaskar (India's number two newspaper) just put the info.
And number ONE Jagran....number one bogus meaningless headline!!!!


BIG QUESTION....
Is fifa world cup such a big news....editors were forced to sideline the big story of the day. Only Hindu and Bhaskar gave it proper weightage...
Even UK's newspapers did not give such enormous space on front page to fifa world cup....but our newspapers are so aggressive as if indians are still living in 20th century....
