A Case of Cut and Paste


Sorry for this Times bashing again, but can't help it. Here is another fresh one from Times of India Mumbai edition..


See how they have carelessly put one paragraph in between the story. I remember a cartoon on our old Kerala University Journalism department's wall, depicting an old newspaper office saying... "Who reads the second para anyway?" I think TOI is taking it far too seriously.

Far from being Professional


Another reason why I love Times News Network (TNN). This is about a finding that the Swine Flu was much more lethal than we thought. And the mistake is right on top...in the headline.


The headline says Swine Flu Far From Lethal, which means it is Not Lethal, or there is still some way to go before it can be called lethal. Published on 26 June, 2012.
