The live coverage of mumbai terror attacks are showing in all the news channels in india. They even show the NSG commandos entering into Nariman House from Helicopter. But in my opinion it is actually helping the terrorists inside the nariman house. They will come to know what exactly is happening outside through other terrorists who will inform them through satellite phones or mobile phones what they have.
What do you think on this subject?

The nation was completely unprepared to face a crisis of this sort across all fronts, be it law enforcement, security forces, political, media as well as people. Check up the following two links:
Lessons from the terror front:

News Channels failed to balance between news and bombast:
http://www.indiantelevision.com/special/y2k8/amit_terror_comment.php
Both are by people from the media, news and entertainment industry, with the first one being a reputed media analyst, the second one from the industry and on the verge of setting up television channels in India.
The crisis is now fortunately under control, 9 terrorists killed and one captured, and unless some of the terrorists besides the 10 who could have escaped start something again over for now.
