if u want balanced news n views read Indian Express or Hindu...if u want colorful pages with pix of insignificant beautiful people, stick 2 DC or ToI
Hi guys,
I am a fresher to the group. Pls dont rag me, but I sincerely feel that...
its unfair to reject ToI just like that. Agreed, it resorts to needless sensationalism (
Pakraman/"
KARACHI CAPTURED") sometimes! But, there is a certain balance between style and content, that makes ToI work not only with me, but with several other millions.
If you are so frustrated with Hyderabad Times, why dont you try reading the columns of Bachi Karkaria, Jug Suraiya, Gurcharan Das, Swaminathan Aiyar, Chidanand Rajghatta, Dileep Padgoankar. Also, The Special Report
has such creative and analytical appeal. Ofcourse, there are other columns like those by local heros... Jay Prakash Narayan or Chiranjeevi.
Such is the visual intensity of its content that The Dance Of Democracy column has made politics so interesting for an otherwise apolitical guy like me.
Also, I am so used to getting up in the morning with a smile, Courtesy: RK Laxman's YOU SAID IT, and ofcourse the indiatimes.com poll, that I am ready to forget a million flaws of ToI.
You ve to believe that I am NOT working with ToI. But, you have to believe that ToI has become THE Masthead for millions of Indians! And, definitely those many Indians are not fools.
Yours,
God Of Small Things.
