Re: [AI] One doubt regarding the newspapers in india.

2009-03-01 Thread Subramani L
Without venturing into a commentary on newspapers, I must say that news
sites are meant for publishing articles in full. For instance, if you
are a regular reader of International Herald Tribune or Guardian, you
would notice some of their opinion articles are as big as 2500 words,
this certainly can't be reproduced as a whole on the print edition. In
fact, newspapers use their sites as a repository of excellent articles
in full. As far some people's preferences of a particular newspaper,
though I am not basically disputing their view that its editorial
content is of the highest quality, I don't necessarily agree with their
deliberate slant towards a particular ideology. All said, their
technology coverage is comprehensive.

 Hello friend,
 What I feel is, the news paper should be in the limits of
 understanding level of its readers. Most of its readers are poor at
 English. Language meant for communication.

 There is no language standard and when it comes to

Hi Sir,


Thanks for your excellent reply.


Well, I too feel that the language of the newspapers should be easy so that 
everyone could understand it. But, there's a wide gap between easy language 
and poor language. For example, if a newspaper is erring while using 'ex' 
and 'former', 'quit' and 'quitted', 'formulas' and 'formulae', 'murder' and 
'manslaughter' and so on, then it is a newspaper which has poor language. I 
too make mistakes - but spotting them in the newspapers is very bad.


I mentioned this here because I was afraid that I am being miscued. I am 
sorry if I skirted from the topic.

Hi, please click 'New Dehli' on www.hindu.com you will get the news of 
Delhi. On www.thetimesofindia.com click 'World' for international news, 
'India' for national news, 'Opinion' for editorials and news analyses and 
'Cities' for the regional editions. On www.hindustantimes.com click 'Views' 
and then see the heading levels. You will find editorials and news analyses. 
Under the third heading, there would be a link 'More headings' - click it to

the

be

present in the printed one. But this newspaper is almost flawless and I

are
a host of errors, their writers treat English as if it were any bugbear 
and
they are expert in cooking the books. The New York Times - 
www.nytimes.com -
is quite like TOI. I haven't read it a lot but my experience with it is 
very
bad. I read its reports and analyses when they get published in The 
Hindu.

There is no language standard and when it comes to
getting information, the newspaper appears to be a rotten egg. The Hindu 
is

the best. I learn from it.


These were my personal views.

Re: [AI] One doubt regarding the newspapers in india.

2009-02-27 Thread Shadab Husain
Hi Sir,


Thanks for your excellent reply.


Well, I too feel that the language of the newspapers should be easy so that 
everyone could understand it. But, there's a wide gap between easy language 
and poor language. For example, if a newspaper is erring while using 'ex' 
and 'former', 'quit' and 'quitted', 'formulas' and 'formulae', 'murder' and 
'manslaughter' and so on, then it is a newspaper which has poor language. I 
too make mistakes - but spotting them in the newspapers is very bad.


I mentioned this here because I was afraid that I am being miscued. I am 
sorry if I skirted from the topic.


With best wishes,


Shadab Husain

[AI] One doubt regarding the newspapers in india.

2009-02-26 Thread govind reddy
Hello every one:
I have a small doubt regarding the newspapers. Every day I read hindu
at free of cost (With out subscription) on their website at
www.thehindu.com

My doubt is that the print version that every one buys and the web
version are the same or there is any differences between them. If
there is a huge difference between these two versions, how to acquire
the original version of any other news paper like times of india,
hindusthan times, and so on.
Can any one provide me the web addresses of The new york times, times
literary supplments.
Where to find the updated news and articles on the current affairs.
Your response in this regard will be highly appriciated.
Regards,
Govind.

There is no major differences between the online and the printed versions of
the newspapers. Sometimes, in The Hindu, the soft copy of any news analysis,
report etc., is more elaborated than their hard copy. Presumably, this is
because there is limited space in the hard copy. It is surprising  that the
errors which you will spot in the online version of The Hindu, would not be
present in the printed one. But this newspaper is almost flawless and I
place it on top of all the admirations. The Hindustan Times is also fine.
