Sorry times for ToI
“He just knows how to press the right buttons, he licks me on my face , my neck, my stomach and I explode. I just lose control when he gets on top of me”. This is a statement by Katya Prudnikova or something .. some model of some kind on Chelsea footballer Claude Makalele.
And where did I find this confession??
This and a skimpily clad beyonce knowles’s pic on the Front Page.
Nope, this is not from a porn site or a pornographic confession diary.
Absolutely not, this comes from TOI our very own Times Of India
This is the regular stuff that TOI’s been dishing out for quite sometime now.
The once mouthpiece of the government is now resorting to basal tactics to sell the newspaper. Not so long ago , getting up in the morning and reading the newspaper was a pleasure, a non biased stance , clean to the point stuff which dealt mainly with happenings around us and the last couple of pages reserved for sport.
WAG’s (wifes and girlfriends) is the most common word found on the sports page these days. Followed by pictures of a couple of bikini clad babes. Who cares how many times Wayne Rooney sleeps around with his girl, who cares about the size of Enrique iglesias’s you know what… or rather who cares which spice girl is having an affair with whom.
Somebody needs to knock some sense into the Bennet and Coleman guys (if they own this porn show now) that a newspaper finds the first use in “Being Read for its news value” in the morning.
A neighbor of mine said he reads TOI these days for the following things necessarily in this order
Babes and boobs. (sports page)
Rape Stories (they abound in the middle pages)
Adverts of social groups, friendship groups and massage parlours. (steadily increasing)
And if anything in the above 3 don’t exist then he goes for the good old quotes and You Said It section (thankfully they still exist).
A sorry state the one time Mouthpiece of the Government is in.

You bet it. Its not a family newspaper anymore, if u know what i mean. and to me, there's a thing about all family members waiting to get their turn with the daily.
but i guess, if B& c are making money, they'll be a little put off by this comment.
Totally agree with you Antya! The paper is spoiling the tastes or it is meant for the spoilt tastes... pathetic.
Today the headlines are things of diguest and a complete put off in name of NEWS...be it Aishwarya's karvachauth, similarity of Indian cricket team and the sensex and the comeback of madhuri into films.....i am amazed where is the responsive journalisum at TOI...anybody listening
luckily we dont get TOI here and have to be content with The Hindu...
