Discussion sessions in TV during prime time has become the
order of the day, be there a bomb blast or stampede or an approaching
parliament session or a global incident. There is no reason required to have
such sessions and if there are no such incidents, people will still discuss on
"what is going to follow this unusually quite phase of eerie silence".
Though almost on the same lines one does not require any special skills to
participate in the same, there are some qualities that could enable one to be
chosen ahead of others for participation. What are these?
My one rupee worth of
thoughts:
- Must be capable of putting up a smile even when you are being crucified
- Rock like belief in your side's stand , even though you are not personally convinced
- Must always refer to the Guru/author/creator of your group in the most revered terms, quite often during the discussions
- Must draw parallel anecdotes, mostly not connected & tangential to the current topic of discussion
- Before disagreeing with the other participant, always talk high about him/her and then say directly opposite views
- Never pay heed to the words of the anchor or others and wake up only when you want to speak.
- Most importantly, must always talk in a voice above others and NEVER NEVER stop when others are trying to answer your points or question you- Keep talking.
- Only cite the words of other people who are not alive
- The more irritated you are, more wider you should be able to sport a grin
- Erase the word 'Logic' from your mind and also attempt to into others
Glad that I don’t qualify on any count above
