Dear All,
An excellent take on Chindu by Thejas in Churumuri which i am pasting it below.

THEJAS H.K. writes from Madras: There was a time not too long ago when I used to walk a couple of miles to get a copy of The Hindu in Mysore. Here, in the City of its birth, it is delivered to my room at 6 am, but over the last few years, a strange feeling of unease, even disgust, makes me run away from a newspaper I used to pursue.

Today, when the paper lands at my doorstep, I wonder if it is the same publication that professors used to goad us to read for its English; if it is the same publication that parliamentarians used to cut and quote; if it is the same publication that our parents used to say was the last word in correctness and credibility.

The unease, the disgust, has been building up for a while now.

Fwd: Rising awareness against the red rag

Good you have highlighted this.
I have stopped subscribing this third rated paper from 1st of
october'07 and now i am buying
Indian Express.jayalalitha's press statement has come out in IE.Out of
curiosity i wanted to see whether anything about this is mentioned in
this commie paper but alas not even a small paragraph was devoted to
this.But whereas you can find statements of M.K on bandh in Front
page,Ramadas daily rantings in bold etc.But nothing to beat the news
on Commies.Even if Karat doesnt shit for a day it becomes a Headline
News in this Red tag useless paper.
No wonder this paper is losing readership to Indian Express and deccan
Chronicle.
Off late i have started a campaign within my family circles and
friends not to buy this paper.I am proud to say that i was able to
convince my dad who lives in Coimbatore to stop buying this paper.He
was reading this paper from the 50's.
