While others talked at length about the blood and gore and reported with relish the death toll this week, one private FM broadcaster in the Valley, K.A.T.H. FM, rose above the rest of the radio pack and displayed a sensitive streak. Following the news of the gruesome massacre by the Maoists early on 7 June, the station announced that it would not broadcast the usual FM trivia?chirpy songs, declarations of love?but instead requested listeners to phone in condolences and messages of a more sombre nature. It was a fitting gesture.
