Sunanda Pushkar,who was at the centre of the IPL Kochi controversy that led to Shashi Tharoor's exit from government,says the media just turned her into a 'slut',some kind of 'brainless eye candy'. Dubbing as a "medieval witch hunt" the media scrutiny on her after the controversy raged,Sunanda said,"I have always been proud that I have made it alone-on my own terms-in a man?s world. And here,in one minute,without bothering to find out any facts the media just turned me into a slut,into some kind of brainless eye candy! I don?t know why people find it so hard to understand this." The 48-year old marketing professional said she met Tharoor two years back but had developed "closeness" in the past five months only. "We are certainly close now,but that closeness only developed less than five months ago.
