India Sliming!!!



The two leading magazines of India are now on a 'smutty' competition against each other. I wonder whether it is purely coincidental or a marketing strategy to come out with a sex issue in order to prevent other magazine from gaining market share. It is disgusting to see both the magazines carrying such smutty articles on its covers.

Yellow journalism and sensationalism have nowadays become flavors for many magazines. This is a disturbing trend which will eventually destroy 'quality' journalism. Another worrying factor is the sales of such magazines which gives enough confidence for other magazines to take a plunge into the world of smut.

When there are porn magazines to deal with such surveys and articles, why should IndiaToday and Outlook publish these stuffs? Are they running short of news articles? Are they concerned more about their profit than their reputation? The kind of articles published by IndiaToday and Outlook are like Doordarshan showing porn movies to grab market share. Shame on these magazines!!!
