Just got off the debate on Headlines Today on the CSK valuation issue. Disappointed with the way Rajdeep Sardesai went about the debate. After the clip on the story he introduces me and says "defending Mr.Srinivasan(and the valuation for CSK) on the show tonight we have Sumanth Raman from Chennai."
My reply: "Who told you I am here to defend Mr.Srinivasan? Did you or any one from your channel ask me beforehand what my point of view was?"
Once I put forth my opinion on how unacceptable the valuation was he quickly lost interest and ended the debate in less than 5 minutes after telling me how it was good that I was seeing reason.
Often the guest coordinators ask us for our views on the topic to be discussed to avoid too many people saying the same thing. Today no one from HT asked me beforehand. Yet he introduces me the way he did. Irritated...
