WHAT IS TIMES OF INDIA UPTO?


Well....everyone knows that there is freedom of expression but don't you think that TIMES OF INDIA has taken it just too far?

Everyday in the morning you wake up looking at those hot bods in the last page of Hyderabad Times. Things are even worse (or better! :-)) in Delhi edition. Recently there was a PIL submitted against the newspaper alleging inappropriate printed material for the kids .The PIL lost its case with the judgment stating that Times of India is not a Kids Newspaper(does it ring bells)what idea does that gives?
Sample this: Last week there was an article giving detailed instructions to couples for a perfect Lip Kiss!!Last month there was detailed procedure for men to know which sexual position or act does their girlfriend enjoy the most? Reading it is just like no hold bars, legalized Soft Porn.
I mean come on guys!! What is newspaper for after all???Is it for the news or for titillation???
News for that matter is absolute junk in it. Its "around the world" section is nothing but horny pictures of Hollywood stars. Their news is very absurd and highly irrelevant.
Just today the Front page News of the paper is "Harry Hotter to bare all...(or something like that)" along with Daniel Radcliffe (our very own Harry Potter) Standing nude (thank god that picture was till abdomen only) with a horse. The news was detailed account Daniel Radcliffe doing workout and gym sessions to act in a stage play in which he is going to stand nude wearing nothing but gaudiness. I mean, what relevance does this news has to India or its readers that this news information appeared in the front page of the paper?
Just check out this calendar pic that indiatimes released and Times Of India endorsed. Maybe it’s high time that government intervenes in this matter rather than gathering moolah over censoring movies.

  1. Yes, I agree with whatever oceanin said. Coming to the case "The PIL lost its case with the judgment stating that Times of India is not a Kids Newspaper" - I feel that, if they are able to win a case like this, then it even gives scope for people to sell some narcotics or drugs saying that it is not for kids.
