Yellow journalism is hated by all as it spreads rumour and rumour naturally victi­mises a person socially, economically, mentally and physically which may ultimately cause one's ruination. But nowaday's yellow journa­lism is the go of the day for circulation of the paper. Our national poet, Kazi Nazrul Islam, through his writings fought for independence of the country, was a journalist and published 'Dhomketu' and 'Langal' but never published anything which effected anyone personally. Our journalists are the next generation of our national poet but for their business, the journalists of today are busy with publication of unfounded news, even sub-judice matter, which cannot be published without permission of the Court concerned.
