What is stopping CNN-IBN news channel in not showing/revealing the so called "STING" ?

The cnn ibn live website has the story .. which they say is exclusive.. but why are they being a coward by not showing what they should?

I have also posted comments on rajdeep sardesai's official blog on the same site.

Here is the link to the story which says that Amar Singh & Ahmed Patel were directly involved:

firstly the link is just an allegation.
The video thing is perfectly simple, they don't want to show the video without being sure about their facts and so on. A video without any backing evidence can lead to an outcry if there are any loose ends and so on. This is their line, I honestly do not like these sting operations being half baked jobs, and its not just fair, but good and correct of them not to broadcast something where they themselves are not satisfied that there are no loose ends.

well KK as you say "Loose ends" if there is a TRANSACTION - eg: I approach you with a Bribe...You agree and you take it.. isn't the TRANSACTION complete? And if I have had been filming you through out! Isn't it enough evidence? Enough to show a complete story from beginning to end?

I guess it is.

It's only after the BJP repeatedly asked the CNN-IBN to show what they had on TAPES between 1pm-2pm that Mr Rajdeep Sardesai and his group backtracked!

It was only then the BJP took the matter inside the Lok Sabha!

I believe the channel bowed down to the impending "threat" from the powers who be... and didn't air them.

Thats it! CNN-IBN doesn't fit the BRAVE FREE INDIAN PRESS marquee. It takes COURAGE and they didn't show any.
