Mind your manners...you are on national TV

Just like you don’t fart, burp, and scratch in public (yeah yeah I know most still go ahead and do it!) there should be an etiquette rule book or ‘TV manners’ made mandatory for TV hosts too. Viewers are often subjected to some obnoxious behaviour. Hosts who insult, anchors who pass snide remarks and contestants who swear! Do they even know that they are being watched and emulated by school-going kids? And why does the I &B Ministry not step in and bring to heel all those who violate the norms of decency on national television more so when they harm the sensibilities of a young mind?
