If you're thinking that Amitabh Bachchan has donned the hat of a professor at any of the popular media faculties, you may be a tad bit off the mark. In fact Bachchan in his recent Facebook post took on the ethics of media personnel. With the ongoing gang rape protests in Delhi and the unruly media coverage it has garnered, Bachchan reminisces about his run-ins with the scribes.

Big B comments on media ethics

 

Posting on his FB wall criticizing the media for their unthoughtful coverage, Bachchan says, "Lot of debate and discussion and comment on the media coverage of patient DelhiGangRape, being shifted in ambulance to another location ... patient privacy is an important element in the Constitutional Journals of Medical Ethics.."

 

Further Bachchan adds his experiences from the past, "Couple of years ago when I was in an emergency and taken to Hospital, media had blocked the ambulance door to such an extent that it took my family and the doctors 20 minutes to open the door to get me out, while I suffered in pain inside, impatient to get immediate medical attention .."

 

However, taking the cake is his recounting the incident of media personnel coming up with ingenious ideas to get the scoop, "On another occasion, after a surgery, a journalist dressed herself in doctor's gear and walked into the ICU where I was and then immediately went out and started live reporting on my condition, saying she had just met me ... Ethics be damned !!"
