This is a short post.
The vast majority of English journalism in India is sloppy, lazy, hypocritical, and amateurish. The sloppiness is on daily display. Pick your favorite newspaper and scan it for typographical errors. Laziness? How many truly well researched, investigative articles do you see in Indian newspapers?
Hypocritical and amateurish? Well, that brings me to the reason for this post. Have you all read how the "reporters cornered" Mamta Sharma, the chairwoman of the National Commission for Women in India? Her fault? She said "sexy" could also have a positive connotation. They want her to take it back. Darned character assasins. None of them could have the moral courage of Mamta Sharma and stand up on stage and say what they truly believe in. After shooting their impotent barbs at Ms. Sharma, I'm sure they went back to their laptops to see their favorite "item number." Hypocritical. See, you agree.
